EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Gordon and his generals before the emperor" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of exploration and discovery in Africa. The image showcases General Charles Gordon, accompanied by his trusted generals, standing before an imposing African emperor. The scene is filled with intrigue as these brave explorers meet with a powerful leader on the mysterious Dark Continent. As we gaze at this historical artwork, we are transported to a time when Africa was largely uncharted territory for Western civilization. The print evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity about what lies beyond the horizon. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every line etched onto paper tells a story of bravery and adventure. It serves as a reminder of the courage exhibited by these early explorers who ventured into unknown lands, facing countless challenges along their journey. This particular print was featured as an illustration for Heroes of the Dark Continent, published around 1890. Its inclusion in this publication highlights its significance as part of our collective understanding of African exploration during that era. Through "Gordon and his generals before the emperor" we are reminded not only of past expeditions but also of humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge and discovery.
