Postcards from Africa — Photographers of the Colonial Era
This volume, published by MFA Publications, is part of the Darwin archive because it documents one of the earliest and most influential visual economies of Africa: the colonial postcard. Drawn primarily from the Leonard A. Lauder Postcard Archive at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Postcards from Africa brings together a complex and often unsettling body of imagery created between the 1900s and 1940s, when photographers—European, African, and otherwise—capitalised on a booming market for images of the continent.
