EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lantern slide captures the awe-inspiring beauty of Victoria Falls, also known as Mosi-oa-Tunya or the Smoke that Thunders, located on the Zambezi River between the present-day countries of Zambia and Zimbabwe. The image is believed to date back to the late 1890s, during the era of British South Africa, when European explorers and settlers began to encounter and document the natural wonders of this region. Victoria Falls is one of the most famous waterfalls in the world, renowned for its breathtaking size and power. The falls are approximately 1,080 meters wide and plunge over a height of 108 meters, creating a spectacular sight as millions of gallons of water crash into the gorge below. The mist created by the falling water rises high into the air, giving the falls their evocative name. The Tokaleya Tonga people, who inhabit the area, have long revered Victoria Falls as a sacred site. European explorers, including the famous David Livingstone, first discovered the falls in the mid-19th century, and they quickly became a popular destination for adventurers and travelers. Today, Victoria Falls remains a major tourist attraction, drawing visitors from around the world who come to witness its raw power and natural beauty. This lantern slide offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the wonders of Africa were still being explored and documented. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of Victoria Falls, which continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
