EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a pivotal moment in history - the naval battle between the Waganda and Wavuma tribes during Mr H M Stanley's Anglo-American Expedition for the Exploration of Central Africa. The image, created by an anonymous English artist in the 19th century, showcases the intensity and drama of this encounter. The scene is filled with action as canoes clash amidst choppy waters. Warriors from both tribes fiercely engage in combat, their determination evident on their faces. This depiction offers a glimpse into the challenges faced by Stanley and his team as they ventured deep into uncharted territories. Published in The Graphic on February 2nd, 1878, this illustration sheds light on one aspect of Stanley's ambitious expedition to explore Central Africa. It serves as a testament to his relentless pursuit of knowledge and discovery. The print itself exudes historical significance, providing viewers with a window into an era when exploration was at its peak. Its inclusion within private collections speaks to its value as a piece of art that not only tells a story but also preserves an important chapter in human history. As we gaze upon this engraving today, we are reminded of Henry Morton Stanley's audacious spirit and unwavering dedication to unraveling the mysteries hidden within Africa's heartland.
