EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a dramatic moment from Sir Henry Morton Stanley's Emin Pasha Relief Expedition, as the group is ambushed by Avisibba Cannibals using poisoned arrows. The tension and chaos of the attack are palpable in the image, with explorers fighting for their lives against a fierce and determined enemy.
This historic scene from "In Darkest Africa" by Henry M. Stanley, published in 1890, offers a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by early explorers venturing into uncharted territories. The bravery and resilience of these men in the face of danger is evident as they defend themselves against their assailants.
The engraving depicts a violent clash between two worlds - one seeking to conquer and exploit, while the other fights fiercely to protect their land and way of life. The use of poison-tipped arrows adds an element of treachery to the battle, highlighting the cunning tactics employed by the Avisibba Cannibals.
As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded of the sacrifices made in pursuit of knowledge and adventure. It serves as a testament to human endurance and determination in overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles on the path to discovery.
