Études sur l'Islam et les tribus du Soudan ..

Marty, Paul, 1882-1938 · 1920 · Paris : E. Leroux · 15 pictures

A 1920 Paris study by Paul Marty, published by E. Leroux, on Islam and the tribes of Sudan, written for scholars of Islam and colonial West Africa. Its photographs are rotated sideways on the page and show mud-walled buildings with decorated facades, robed figures in courtyards, a walled town with a tree, and a rocky hillside with pines, offering a designer reference for vernacular architecture and desert-edge landscape.
