EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic meeting on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Ujiji, Africa. The image depicts an encounter between two remarkable individuals who played significant roles in shaping the continent's history. On November 10,1871, Henry Morton, a Welsh explorer and journalist (1841-1904), met with David Livingstone, a Scottish missionary explorer (1813-1873). The photograph showcases the momentous occasion when these two men from different backgrounds came together. Their meeting symbolizes the intersection of exploration and missionary work in Africa during this time period. Emile Bayard beautifully engraved this scene for "Le Tour du Monde" in 1873. In this image, we witness Morton and Livingstone engaging in conversation as they greet each other with respect and curiosity. It is evident that their encounter holds great significance for both parties involved. This photograph not only highlights the spirit of adventure but also sheds light on colonialism's impact on native African populations during this era. It serves as a reminder of the complex historical dynamics between explorers like Morton and missionaries like Livingstone. Preserved within private collections today, this engraving by Emile Antoine Bayard offers us a glimpse into an important moment that shaped our understanding of Africa's past. Through its depiction of courtesy and cultural exchange, it invites viewers to reflect upon the intricate tapestry woven by encounters between different civilizations throughout history.
