EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "AFRICA: BUSHMAN FAMILY" takes us back to the late 19th century in Southern Africa. The print showcases a Bushman family, providing a glimpse into their unique way of life as hunter-gatherers and nomads. In this image, we see a father figure adorned with an intricate feather headdress, symbolizing his status within the community. His weathered face tells tales of wisdom and resilience acquired through years spent surviving in the harsh African bush. Beside him stands his wife, her presence exuding strength and grace as she carries herself with dignity. Their young son captures our attention with his wide-eyed curiosity about the world around him. Despite being just a child, he is already learning the ways of his ancestors - observing and absorbing knowledge that will shape his future as a member of this ancient culture. The lithograph beautifully captures the essence of this Bushman family's existence - living harmoniously with nature while relying on their skills to provide for themselves. The pipe held by the father suggests moments of relaxation amidst their daily struggles. As we gaze at this print from 1893, we are transported to another time - one where traditions were passed down through generations and survival was dependent on deep-rooted knowledge rather than modern conveniences. It serves as a reminder of both our shared humanity across cultures and how much society has evolved since then.
