EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic 1871 expedition into central Africa led by Henry Morton Stanley, a renowned British explorer. In this wood engraving from 1890, we see Stanley alongside his trusted companion Sidi Mubarak Bombay, an Indian rider who played a crucial role in their search for the elusive David Livingstone. The image showcases the stark contrast between these two men from different backgrounds and cultures. Stanley, dressed in typical English attire with his hat and binoculars, represents the epitome of colonial exploration during that era. On the other hand, Sidi Mubarak Bombay stands barefooted and carries himself with grace as he fulfills his duties as a porter on this arduous journey. Their partnership symbolizes both the challenges faced by European explorers venturing into unknown territories and the reliance they had on local expertise to navigate through unfamiliar landscapes. This wood engraving beautifully captures their camaraderie and mutual respect despite their differences. As we delve into history through this remarkable artwork by Godefroy Durand, it serves as a reminder of not only the accomplishments of these individuals but also sheds light on larger themes such as imperialism and cultural exchange during that time period. The Granger Collection has preserved this significant moment in African exploration for us to reflect upon and appreciate today.
