About the Item
Like the Maasai, Rendille women and their children keep their hair very short. This mother, however, leaves a tuft of hair remaining on the front of her child which has been bleached lighter by the powerful equatorial sun of their home.
A return to Kenya. On this trip John took a different approach to lighting. Building makeshift studios from locally acquired white sheets held up by four warriors and their spears! The suffuse light allows John to capture a remarkable level of detail. His subjects calm demeanor belies the reality of harsh arid winds, extreme temperatures and dust.
The C-type prints are mounted with an acrylic face mount giving them a 3-dimensional appearance and a contemporary look.

Portrait of a woman. Mursi ethnic group, Ethiopia
This artwork is offered by IMMAGIS · ART PHOTOGRAPHY, one of the leading galleries for contemporary Fine Art Photography, located in Munich/Germany.
The horns worn by Mursi women are not simply decorative but also reflect their culture’s attitude towards their cows, which play a crucial role in ensuring survival through hard times. Cattle breeding is one of the most important part of Mursi and Surma culture.
