Africa in Focus: Using Photographs in Historical Research

More and more historical photographs are being digitalized and made available online. In digital archives, you can search through photographic collections and identify individual photographs.


To solve these archive tasks you must search through some particular photo archives. By doing so, you will not only learn different ways to search through the collections, but also become more familiar with the historical collections and individual photographs of the archive of the Basel Mission and of the German Colonial Society.
