SALT AND SAND

The Salt and Sand print is named for the book entitled "Le Reve du Dromadaire" (translation The Dromedary's Dream) by Ivorian poet and writer Tanella Boni. The source photograph in the design comes from an early 20th-century postcard with the caption "Jeunes Krowmen de Drewin”, translation “Young Kru Men from Drewin”.
