EDITORS COMMENTS
Victoria Falls: The Leaping Water captures the awe-inspiring beauty and raw power of one of Africa's greatest natural wonders. This vibrant colour lithograph, created by Thomas Baines in the 19th century, showcases the magnificence of Victoria Falls in all its glory. The image transports us to a lush African landscape where towering trees frame the scene, providing a sense of scale against the immense waterfall. With great attention to detail, Baines depicts every element with precision - from the cascading water plunging into the gorge below to the wild vegetation that thrives in this untamed wilderness. The forceful rush of whitewater creates an ethereal mist that envelops everything around it, adding an air of mystery and enchantment. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost hear nature's symphony as water crashes against rocks and echoes through the valley. This photograph is part of The Stapleton Collection and offers a glimpse into Baines' explorations in South West Africa during his journey between 1861 and 1862. It serves as a testament to his skill as an artist and his ability to capture not just what he saw but also what he felt while standing before such grandeur. As we admire this breathtaking scene captured on paper, let us be reminded of our planet's incredible diversity and cherish these natural wonders for generations to come.
