Title: Broad sunlight
Description: Broad sunlight highlights some of the key photographers active in West Africa to 1920. Comparatively well-known figures, like N. W. Holm and A. Lisk-Carew, appear alongside less familiar names, such as T. Hamilton Coleman and D. Olawale Labinjo. The book is illustrated with photographic materials collected by Michael Graham-Stewart over a number of years, including many seldom-seen images. Expansive, without being exhaustive, it is intended to support further exploration of the photographic cultures and histories associated with the vast but interconnected region of West Africa.
