EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the courtyard of Karague, located west of Lake Victoria in present-day Zimbabwe. The artwork, created by Emile Bayard in the 19th century, beautifully illustrates a scene from Captain Speke's voyage of discovery in Africa between 1860 and 1863. In this engraving titled "L trouge au pombe (alcoholic beverage by fermentation)" we witness a moment of refreshment amidst the African landscape. A group of individuals can be seen enjoying a traditional drink known as L trouge au pombe. This fermented alcoholic beverage was likely made from local ingredients found within the region. Bayard's attention to detail is evident as he captures not only the people but also their surroundings. The courtyard exudes an air of tranquility with its lush foliage and rustic architecture. It serves as a gathering place for both locals and explorers like Captain Speke, who sought to uncover new lands and cultures. The significance of this image lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its historical context. It offers us a glimpse into the exploration and encounters that took place during this period on the African continent. As we admire this remarkable piece from Leonard de Selva's collection, let us appreciate how art can transport us through time, allowing us to connect with different eras and cultures across the globe.
