EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative illustration from Henry Morton Stanley's "In Darkest Africa," published in 1891 by the Illustrated London News, a poorly Madi warrior is shown being fed Liebig's Meat Extract. The scene takes place in the heart of Africa, likely in what is now Sudan or Uganda, during Stanley's famous exploration of the continent. The Madi warrior, his body emaciated and weak from illness or hardship, is being tenderly cared for by a European figure, believed to be one of Stanley's men. The European holds a bottle of Liebig's Meat Extract, which he pours into a cup for the warrior to drink. The effect of the nutrient-rich extract is immediately apparent, as the warrior's eyes brighten and his color begins to return to his cheeks. The use of Liebig's Meat Extract as a life-saving measure in this remote and inhospitable environment underscores the importance of nutrition and nourishment in maintaining health and vitality, even in the most challenging of circumstances. The extract, which was marketed as a source of essential nutrients for those who were unable to obtain fresh meat, was a popular product during the late 19th century, particularly among European colonial powers and their expeditions. This illustration provides a poignant reminder of the human cost of exploration and colonization, as well as the role that advances in nutrition and medicine played in enabling Europeans to travel and thrive in Africa and other far-flung parts of the world. The image also serves as a testament to the enduring power of compassion and care, even in the face of adversity and hardship.
