“Webb’s striking color photographs present an outsider’s view onto the social, political, and cultural dynamics on the continent at a critical period between colonialism and independence. Resisting stereotypical or exoticizing frameworks, Webb created images of countries on the brink of change, documenting not only industrial change but also people, homes, landscapes, and daily activities, bringing the past to vibrant life. ”
