EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the tragic moment when Sir David Livingstone, a renowned Scottish physician, Congregationalist, and pioneer Christian missionary, breathed his last breath. The image showcases the humble hut in which he met his untimely demise on 1 May 1873 in Ilala, southeast of Lake Bangweulu in present-day Zambia. Livingstone's incredible journey as an explorer in Africa had come to an end due to the merciless grip of malaria and internal bleeding caused by dysentery. His unwavering dedication to uncovering the mysteries of this vast continent had made him a legend among his peers. Published around 1890 in "Picturesque Scotland Its Romantic Scenes and Historical Associations" this archival engraving transports us back to that fateful day. It serves as a poignant reminder of Livingstone's significant contributions not only as an explorer but also as a compassionate healer who dedicated his life to serving others. The picture exudes a vintage charm that encapsulates the spirit of exploration during the 19th century. As we gaze upon this historical illustration, we are reminded of Livingstone's indomitable spirit and unwavering commitment towards understanding Africa's diverse cultures and landscapes. Ken Welsh has masterfully captured this profound moment through his lens, allowing us to reflect upon Livingstone's enduring legacy. This print stands as a testament to one man's relentless pursuit for knowledge amidst adversity and pays homage to the remarkable achievements of Sir David Livingstone.
