EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century depicts the transport of ivory to the coast in Africa. The image showcases a scene of exploration and discovery, as it was created for the book "South African Discovery" by N D Anvers in 1878. In this illustration, we see a group of Africans engaged in the arduous task of transporting ivory towards the coastline. They navigate through central Africa, making their way to South Africa's southern region. The presence of elephants signifies both the abundance of wildlife in this part of Africa and also highlights the importance of ivory trade during that time. The engraver skillfully captures not only the physical labor involved but also conveys a sense of adventure and expedition. The coastal backdrop adds an element of maritime exploration to this scene, emphasizing how transportation played a crucial role in connecting different parts of Africa. This print serves as a historical record, shedding light on how means of transport were utilized during this era. It is an evocative portrayal that invites viewers to contemplate both human ingenuity and its impact on animal populations. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from our past, allowing us to appreciate its artistic value while reflecting on important aspects such as wildlife conservation and cultural exchange between continents.
