Resumo: This essay articulates a reflection around three axes: photography, anthropology, and history. To this end, I examine a set of images by Mozambican photographer Ricardo Rangel from the late colonial period in the country (1950-1975). The goal is to analyze these photographs as a series that provoke articulations, questioning narratives and official memories of the colonial and post-independence periods. I argue that photography reveals an entanglement of temporalities, dialectics, remains of the past, fragments of plural histories that are associated in the present, tensioning it. With this reflection, I seek to problematize Ricardo Rangel’s gaze, reflecting both on his photographic practice and on his conditions and contexts of production. The essay also reflects on the production of the city from Rangel’s images and look, as well as problematizing some narratives and memories from colonial times and its actualization in the present.

Este ensaio articula três eixos: fotografia, antropologia e história. Tomo como material de análise um conjunto de imagens do fotógrafo moçambicano Ricardo Rangel do período tardo-colonial no país (1950-1975). O objetivo é abordar essas fotografias enquanto uma série que articula memórias e questiona narrativas oficializadas dos períodos colonial e pós-independência. Argumento que a fotografia revela um emaranhado de temporalidades, restos de passados e fragmentos de histórias plurais que se coadunam no presente, tensionando-o. Com essa reflexão, problematizo o olhar fotográfico de Ricardo Rangel a respeito da cidade de Lourenço Marques/Maputo, refletindo sobre sua prática fotográfica, mas também sobre suas condições e contextos de atuação. A partir das imagens, o texto reflete a produção da cidade, abordando narrativas e memórias do tempo colonial e sua atualização no presente.
