Description:
Senegalese wrestling (Lamb in Wolof) is a type of Folk wrestling traditionally performed by the Serer people and now a national sport in Senegal.
In Lamb: Lutteurs du Sénégal Denis Rouvre has photographed the strong bodies, the tense, perpetually defiant faces of the wrestling apprentices of suburbs of Dakar. They belong to one of the 77 stables of the country and they daily practice this unique sport activity as a subtle mix of traditional wrestling and bare hands boxing.
Superb!
