EDITORS COMMENTS
The Anglo-Portuguese Boundary Commission, South Africa, on the March from Beira (engraving) captures a momentous expedition in history. This 19th-century print showcases the determination and resilience of the commission as they embark on their journey through South Africa. In this image, we see a group of military personnel mounted on majestic horses, symbolizing strength and power. The soldiers are dressed in uniform, ready to face any challenges that lie ahead. The vastness of the African landscape stretches out behind them, hinting at the arduous task they have undertaken. This engraving was created by an English School artist for The Illustrated London News in October 1892. It serves as a visual documentation of the historic Anglo-Portuguese Boundary Commission's progress towards Beira. Their mission was to establish clear boundaries between British-controlled territories and Portuguese colonies in Southern Africa. The print not only highlights the military aspect but also offers glimpses into daily life during this time period. We can imagine conversations among comrades, shared laughter around campfires, and moments of camaraderie amidst challenging conditions. As we admire this artwork today, it reminds us of the courage and dedication exhibited by those who ventured into unknown lands to fulfill their duties. It is a testament to human perseverance and exploration that continues to inspire generations after generations.
