EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Zanjueelah, the boatman of the rapids" we are transported to the majestic Victoria Falls on the Zambesi River. The image, captured by Thomas Baines in 1865, showcases a breathtaking landscape teeming with lush vegetation and towering trees. At the center of attention is Zanjueelah, an African boatman skillfully navigating his canoe through treacherous whitewater rapids. With a calm yet determined expression on his face, he expertly steers his vessel amidst rocky obstacles and fast-flowing currents. His presence exudes both bravery and caution as he carries passengers across this perilous stretch of water. The scene also reveals European explorers dressed in colonial attire observing Zanjueelah's remarkable skills from afar. They bear witness to the danger that lies within these turbulent waters while appreciating the invaluable assistance provided by native Africans like Zanjueelah. This vivid portrayal not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to human resilience and cooperation across cultures. It reminds us of our shared connection with nature and highlights how individuals from different backgrounds can come together for mutual survival and exploration. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this historical gem from The Stapleton Collection, allowing us to appreciate its artistic brilliance while immersing ourselves in an awe-inspiring adventure along one of Africa's most iconic rivers.
