EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a tender moment in the heart of Southern Rhodesia, now known as Zimbabwe, during the early 1920s. The image showcases Stella Court Treatt, an adventurous British woman, caring for a sick baby amidst the vast African landscape. Taken by artist Thomas A Glover, this photograph is part of the renowned book "Cape to Cairo" written by Stella Court Treatt herself. The book chronicles her remarkable journey alongside her husband Major Chaplin Court Treatt as they became the first individuals to successfully travel from Cape Town to Cairo by motor vehicle between 1924 and 1926. In this particular scene, we see Stella seated under a tree with utmost concern etched on her face. Her compassionate nature shines through as she tends to the sick child in her arms. This powerful image encapsulates both motherhood and adventure within one frame. The monochrome composition adds depth and emotion to the photograph while emphasizing its historical significance. It serves as a poignant reminder of an era when exploration was intertwined with personal sacrifice and dedication. As we gaze upon this print from "Cape to Cairo" we are transported back in time - witnessing not only a brave expedition but also witnessing humanity's universal instinct for compassion and care even in unfamiliar lands.
