This article analyzes the ethnographic essay undertaken by Manuel Raimundo Querino: A raça africana e seus costumes na Bahia. The objective is to understand the way in which the author used the socio-evolutionist terminology to enhance the contributions of the African people to Bahia’s cultures. In the essay Querino exhibited various photographs of African people, as well as of Candomble authorities, rituals, and material objects. Those pictures served the author as visual supports to his ethnography. Here I analyze the use given by Querino to the images, which results particular if compared with other researches did about African people in Bahia during the same period.Downloads
