EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Return of Mr Stanley's Expedition, Presentation of the Order of Zanzibar, by the British Consul, on Board the Katoria at Mombasa" captures a momentous occasion in history. The image depicts a grand ceremony taking place aboard the Katoria ship in Mombasa, Kenya. In this scene, we witness an important event unfolding as the British Consul presents the prestigious Order of Zanzibar to Mr Stanley and his expedition team. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation as distinguished guests gather to witness this significant moment. The artist, Thomas Walter Wilson, skillfully portrays every detail of this ceremonial affair. From the elaborate decorations adorning the ship's deck to the formal attire worn by all attendees, no aspect is overlooked. This engraving was originally published in The Illustrated London News on 1st February 1890 and offers us a glimpse into an era when exploration and discovery were highly celebrated achievements. It serves as a testament to Henry Morton Stanley's remarkable expedition and his contributions to our understanding of Africa. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of the courage and determination displayed by these explorers who ventured into unknown territories. Their accomplishments continue to inspire generations around the world.
