EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of warmth and connection between two members of the Wezee people, an ethnic group indigenous to the Congo Basin region of Central Africa, during the late 19th century. The man, dressed in a simple yet intricately patterned loincloth, extends a hand in a gesture of greeting and respect towards the woman, who wears a brightly colored wrap skirt adorned with beads and other adornments. The serene expressions on their faces and the gentle touch of their hands convey a sense of deep-rooted cultural traditions and etiquette that have been passed down through generations. The Wezee people, also known as the Vili or Vira, are known for their complex social structures, intricate arts, and rich oral traditions. Their society was organized around extended families and clans, and great importance was placed on community and respect for elders. Greetings were an essential part of daily life, serving not only as a means of acknowledging the presence of others but also as a way of establishing and maintaining relationships. This photograph, taken in the 1870s, offers a rare glimpse into the customs and traditions of the Wezee people during a time of significant historical change. As European powers began to expand their influence in the region, the cultural practices of indigenous peoples were often disrupted and disrupted. This image serves as an important reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire and influence contemporary African societies and beyond.
