EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases a historical treasure, the "Map of Matabeleland in the late 19th century". Created by an anonymous English School artist in the early 20th century, this map was originally published in Louis Creswicke's renowned book "South Africa and the Transvaal War: Vol. 1" in 1900. The intricate details depicted on this map offer a fascinating glimpse into the territorial landscape of Matabeleland during that era. Every contour and boundary is meticulously engraved, allowing viewers to explore and understand the region's geography with precision. Matabeleland, located within Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), holds significant historical importance due to its involvement in various conflicts and colonization efforts. This map serves as a valuable resource for historians, cartographers, and enthusiasts alike who seek to study or trace the evolution of this region over time. Preserved within a private collection, this lithograph print not only captures an important piece of history but also highlights the skillful craftsmanship involved in creating such detailed maps. Its artistic value lies not only in its accuracy but also in its ability to transport us back to a pivotal period when exploration and mapping played crucial roles in shaping our understanding of different territories around the world.
