EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a unique moment in history, showcasing a horned Rickshaw man in Bulawayo, Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) during the 1920s. The image provides a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of Southern Africa at that time, with the British influence evident in the rickshaw and attire of the man.
The juxtaposition of traditional African elements with colonial influences is striking, highlighting the complex dynamics at play during this period. The rickshaw itself serves as a symbol of travel and mobility, reflecting both physical movement and cultural exchange.
As we gaze upon this scene from nearly a century ago, we are transported back to a time when Bulawayo was still known as Southern Rhodesia and Zimbabwe had not yet gained its independence. The man's stoic expression hints at untold stories and experiences, inviting us to imagine what life was like for him in this rapidly changing world.
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library is not just a historical artifact; it is a window into another era, offering us an opportunity to reflect on our shared past and consider how far we have come since those days. It reminds us of the importance of preserving our collective heritage and honoring those who came before us.
