EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a moment of respite during an extraordinary journey. Taken in 1925 as part of the groundbreaking Cape to Cairo expedition, it showcases the diverse group of individuals who dared to venture into the heart of Africa by motor vehicle. Seated around a makeshift table in the rugged wilderness, we see Stella Court Treatt and her husband Major Chaplin Court Treatt, Errol Hinds, and Thomas A Glover. Their faces reflect both exhaustion and excitement as they enjoy a much-needed meal amidst their arduous adventure. The image not only provides a glimpse into the physical challenges faced by these intrepid explorers but also highlights their camaraderie and determination. Dressed in clothing suited for the African climate, they embody the spirit of exploration that defined this era. As pioneers traversing uncharted territories within British-controlled Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia), this photograph symbolizes their triumph over adversity. It is a testament to human resilience and curiosity about distant lands. Preserved through time as part of Stella Court Treatt's memoir "Cape to Cairo" this print serves as a visual record of an incredible chapter in history. It reminds us of the audacity required to embark on such expeditions while celebrating those who pushed boundaries in pursuit of discovery. In this single frame frozen from nearly a century ago lies an entire story - one that speaks volumes about courage, unity, and our eternal fascination with exploring new frontiers.
