EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking beauty of The Mosi-O-A-Tunya, also known as Victoria Falls, located on the Zambesi River. Painted by Thomas Baines in 1874, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 50.8x66.1 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The image captures the essence of this natural wonder with its powerful waterfall cascading down amidst a cloud of mist, hence its name "Smoke Resounding". The sheer force and grandeur of the falls are awe-inspiring, leaving viewers spellbound. Intriguingly, amidst this majestic landscape lies an array of African wildlife. A magnificent elephant gracefully stands at the edge of the riverbank, observing nature's spectacle before it. Nearby, impalas roam freely while a deer grazes peacefully nearby. A vibrant rainbow arches across the sky above Victoria Falls, adding to its ethereal charm and creating a mesmerizing contrast against the lush greenery surrounding it. Thomas Baines masterfully captures not only the physicality but also the spirit and energy that emanate from this natural phenomenon through his brushstrokes. His attention to detail brings every element to life - from each droplet falling into oblivion to every blade of grass swaying gently in harmony with nature's symphony. This remarkable painting serves as a testament to both human creativity and Mother Nature's boundless wonders; it invites us to immerse ourselves in their timeless embrace.
