Hardback complete with dust jacket in very good, clean condition. Stock photo. Dogon: People of the Cliffs is the second book by Agnes Pataux published by 5 Continents. Her photos reflect a culture still intact, while their intimate and direct power emphasizes the quality of her friendly, sympathetic view. The first African experience of Agnes Pataux and her family took place in Senegal. A few years later, she accompanied her father, an enthusiast of African art and civilization, to Mali and successively felt the wish to explore more remote territories. Her encounter with the Dogon people captivated her instantly and led her to return to the cliff of Bandiagara in order to experience life with a family from Yendouma Ato as well as with more families in several nearby villages. She later visited the Dogon people every six months, following the "rhythm of the seasons", to enjoy experiences that proved disconcerting yet exciting, fascinating and, with time, more and more agreeable.
