EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts the moment of triumphant return for British explorer, Sir Henry Morton Stanley (1841-1904), and his companions as they emerge from the depths of the African interior. The year is 1871, and Stanley, a journalist turned explorer, had been commissioned by the English press to locate the missing explorer, Dr. David Livingstone, who had gone missing during his own African expedition. Stanley's expedition, filled with peril and hardship, had finally succeeded in finding Livingstone in Ujiji, Tanzania. The engraving captures the jubilant scene of their return, as the weary explorers are greeted by a crowd of African villagers and European companions. The vibrant colors of the print bring the scene to life, with Stanley standing tall and proud in the center, clad in his explorer's attire, while his companions follow closely behind, their faces reflecting a mix of exhaustion and elation. The image is a poignant reminder of the colonial era, a time when European powers vied for control of the African continent. Stanley's expedition was a significant moment in the history of colonialism, as it brought renewed attention to the African continent and paved the way for further exploration and exploitation. The print, produced in the 19th century, serves as a testament to the spirit of adventure and the indomitable human will to explore the unknown. Despite the controversial legacy of colonialism and the exploitation it brought, this engraving remains a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, a time when the world seemed full of endless possibilities and the unknown was just a journey away.
