EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Gordon reviewing his Troops at Khartoum" we are transported back to the 19th century, where English explorer General Charles Gordon stands tall amidst a sea of African troops. The image, part of a private collection and now out of copyright, captures a pivotal moment in history when exploration and discovery were at their peak. The scene is set in Khartoum, an exotic location synonymous with adventure and mystery. As the commander-in-chief, Gordon takes on the role of both leader and mentor as he reviews his loyal troops. His presence exudes authority and determination, inspiring those around him to strive for greatness. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for "Heroes of the Dark Continent" a publication that celebrated the courageous explorers who ventured into uncharted territories across Africa. It serves as a testament to their bravery and resilience in facing unknown challenges. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of the rich history behind Africa's exploration. The diverse cultures represented by these African soldiers highlight the continent's vastness while emphasizing its unity under Gordon's leadership. Through this artwork, we are invited to reflect on our own journeys of discovery – whether they be physical or metaphorical – and find inspiration in those who have come before us.
