EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense moment of a buffalo charging towards an expedition in Africa. The drawing, skillfully created by Emile Bayard, was originally published in 1877 to illustrate the gripping story "Across Africa, from Zanzibar to Benguela" written by Lieutenant V. H. Cameron. The image depicts a group of British explorers caught off guard as they face the imminent danger posed by the powerful buffalo. Fear and panic are palpable on their faces as they scramble for safety amidst the African wilderness. The intricate details of the engraving bring to life both the human vulnerability and the raw power of nature. The composition is framed beautifully with a majestic tree serving as a backdrop, symbolizing both shelter and isolation in this treacherous landscape. The presence of luggage scattered around suggests that this unexpected encounter has disrupted their journey, adding an element of suspense to the scene. Emile Bayard's meticulous artistry combined with Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings forth an evocative portrayal of exploration during this era. This historical print serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit for discovery despite facing formidable challenges along its path.
