EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases Jan Tzatzoe, a prominent figure from the Amakosah Tribe in what is now South Africa. Created by J Bull and featured in James Cowles Prichard's Natural History of Man, this engraving offers a rare glimpse into the life of an indigenous African leader during the 19th century.
