4.0 out of 5 stars
Wow, how cool are they, in their own skin, beautifully dressed, tenderly captured,
By
This review is from: Seydou Keita--African Photographer (Hardcover)
A self-made photographer begins taking portraits of people around him. People ask him to capture them at their best, so that they can seduce those they love. And that unconditionally. A series of studio photographs taken in the Republic of Mali in the 1960s and after... They are strikingly well-dressed! Ordinary people of Africa presenting themselves as well as they can. From individual portraits to family, conversation pieces, every page is a delight. Toward the end there are pieces taken outside, intentionally looking like snapshots (but they are not). Full of African faces, thick African atmosphere. You'll be surprised to examine their faces and learn the continent's overwhelming genetic diversity!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Seydou Keita--African Photographer (Hardcover)
Damage indicated in original advertising was mis-leading, to say the least.
Explanations by seller later, made one think; they are either charlatans or idiots! I rather think that the seller is a professional in this market and should be judged accordingly. Restitution of agreed amount was made promptly by seller but I would be careful/ warey in dealing with this person again. Lawrence Winder |
