EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases Cecil John Rhodes, a prominent figure in British colonial history. Rhodes, born in 1853 and passing away in 1902, was not only an administrator but also a renowned financier. The artist behind this remarkable piece is William Nicholson, who skillfully captured Rhodes' essence through his woodcut technique. In this portrait, Rhodes exudes confidence and authority as he stands with his hand casually tucked into his pocket. His distinguished moustache adds to the air of sophistication that surrounds him. The late 19th-century setting further emphasizes the turn of the century atmosphere. Rhodes played a significant role in shaping British colonialism during this era. As an Englishman, he left an indelible mark on Africa's history by establishing territories such as Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia). Despite controversy surrounding his actions and policies today, it cannot be denied that Cecil John Rhodes was one of the most influential figures of his time. This lithograph print serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to the artistic talent of William Nicholson. It allows us to glimpse into the life and persona of this complex colonialist figure from over a century ago.
