Africa | Granary door from the Dogon people of Mali | Wood, encrusted grey brown patina | ca. early to mid 1900s | granaries outnumber almost all other types of buildings in Dogon villages, demonstrating the importance of preserving crops produced with the hard labor required in such a rocky landscape.
