EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph takes us back to the year 1853, when renowned explorer David Livingstone embarked on a treacherous 1000-mile journey through the untamed swamps and dense forests of Africa. Accompanied by a small party of natives, Livingstone's expedition was filled with both danger and excitement. The image depicts Livingstone standing tall amidst his companions, dressed in their distinctive costumes and uniforms. Their faces reveal a mix of determination and curiosity as they prepare to face the unknown challenges that lie ahead. The engraving skillfully captures the essence of this historic moment, transporting us back in time to witness this remarkable adventure firsthand. Published in Newnes Pictorial Knowledge during the 1950s, this print serves as a testament to Livingstone's enduring legacy as one of history's greatest explorers. His unwavering spirit of discovery paved the way for future generations to explore uncharted territories and expand our understanding of the world. As we gaze upon this evocative artwork, we are reminded not only of Livingstone's bravery but also his deep respect for local cultures. This image encapsulates an era when exploration meant more than just conquering lands; it was about forging connections with native peoples and embracing their customs along the way. Intriguingly captured by artist John Harris Valda, this lithograph invites us into a world where adventure awaits at every turn—a reminder that even today, there are still frontiers waiting to be explored.
