EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts the historic moment when Sir Henry Morton Stanley, a renowned British explorer and journalist, and Mr. Jephson, a British consul, entered Dufile, a small town on the banks of the River Nile, in 1888. The scene marks the successful rescue of Emin Pasha, the Governor of the Egyptian Equatorial Province, who had retreated to Wadelai, near Lake Albert, during the Mahdist War of the mid-1880s. Emin Pasha, born in 1840, had been cut off from all communication and was considered lost by the British government. In response, a rescue party was dispatched, led by Stanley, who had previously gained fame for his search for the missing explorer, David Livingstone. Stanley's party, consisting of approximately 7,000 men, managed to locate Emin Pasha and bring him back to safety. In the image, Emin Pasha and Jephson are shown riding into Dufile, marking their return to civilization after years of isolation. The event was a significant achievement in British colonial history and demonstrated the determination and resourcefulness of the British in maintaining their influence in Africa during a period of intense conflict. The Mahdist War, also known as the Mahdiya War or the Mahdist Rebellion, was a major uprising against the rule of the Egyptian Khedive Ismail in Sudan. The Mahdi, Muhammad Ahmad ibn Abd Allah, led the rebellion and established the Mahdist State, which lasted from 1881 to 1898. The conflict resulted in the deaths of an estimated 1 million people and marked the end of the Turkish rule in Sudan. This engraving is an important historical document that captures a pivotal moment in the exploration and colonization of Africa and offers a glimpse into the complex political landscape of the late 19th century.
