EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Junction of the Kiltee with the Brantee, Agow Meder: A Journey through Soudan... 1875,' transports us back to the 1870s in Africa, specifically in the region of Abyssinia, now known as Ethiopia. The image, from the book 'Illustrated Travels' by Henry Walter Bates, published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London, showcases a breathtaking landscape where the Kiltee and Brantee rivers meet. The scene is set against the backdrop of the rugged, mountainous terrain, with the rivers winding through the valley below. The crystal-clear waters reflect the vibrant greens of the vegetation and the rich browns of the earth. In the foreground, local people can be seen going about their daily activities, adding a sense of life and movement to the tranquil scene. Henry Walter Bates, the author of 'Illustrated Travels,' was a British explorer and naturalist who embarked on a journey through Soudan and Western Abyssinia during the late 19th century. His account of this journey, accompanied by stunning illustrations like this one, provided Europeans with a glimpse into the exotic and largely unexplored Horn of Africa. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Africa during this period, offering a glimpse into a time when exploration and discovery were at the forefront of human curiosity. The image invites us to reflect on the beauty and diversity of the natural world and the people who inhabit it.
