Going to Market - By Water - A Glimpse into the African Way of Life
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Going to Market - By Water" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the vibrant world of 19th-century Africa. Illustrated by J. Ewing Richie and published in The Pictorial Edition of the Life and Discoveries of David Livingstone, this lithograph captures an enchanting scene that transports us back in time. In this image, we find ourselves immersed in a bustling river setting. A native African man confidently navigates his makeshift raft through the gentle currents, accompanied by his loyal canine companion. As they journey along, their eyes are watchful for any potential dangers lurking beneath the surface – perhaps even a lurking crocodile. The surrounding environment is teeming with life and activity. Monkeys playfully swing from tree branches overhead while natives skillfully maneuver logs across the water's edge. Their walking sticks or canes provide stability as they traverse this watery pathway towards their destination – the market. This engraving not only showcases remarkable artistic talent but also serves as a window into daily life during that era in Africa. It invites us to ponder upon cultural exchange, trade routes, and human resilience amidst nature's challenges. As we gaze at this extraordinary piece from The Stapleton Collection, our imagination takes flight as we envision ourselves alongside these brave individuals on their adventurous journey to procure goods for their community. This print truly encapsulates both beauty and intrigue within its intricate details
