One of three photographs from the Coutinho Brothers studio show women reflecting distinct and different engagements with the photographer and each other. Alternately resistant, playful, and decorous, this range of interactions leaves a complex and ambiguous photographic record. References from the albums in which they were collected suggest two may represent Comorian women, likely referencing the long chemise and trousers and the stylish kanga.Left:Comorian Woman Striking a Playful PosePhotographer unknownAlbumen printZanzibar, c. 1890Middle:Comorian Woman Striking a Decorous PosePhotographer unknownAlbumen printZanzibar, c. 1890Right: Comorian Woman Demonstrating a Resistant LookPhotographer unknownAlbumen printZanzibar, c. 1890
