EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "African Exploration, Notes by a Member of Lieutenant Youngs Expedition" takes us on a visual journey through the untamed landscapes of 19th century East Africa. The print showcases the remarkable topography and significant landmarks encountered during this expedition. The image transports us to Shupanga House, where we witness the confluence of two rivers amidst lush vegetation. The intricate details in the engraving allow us to observe the notes made by a member of Lieutenant Young's team as they navigate their way through this uncharted territory. As our eyes wander across the scene, we are drawn to Moramballa Marsh and Murchison Cataracts, showcasing both the beauty and challenges faced by explorers in these lands. We catch glimpses of Macoromazie and Patamanga along with Mrs. Livingstone's grave – a poignant reminder of those who lost their lives during these expeditions. Through this artwork, we gain insight into African exploration during that era while also appreciating its historical significance. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and resilience in their pursuit of knowledge about distant lands. This print is an invaluable piece from English School's collection held privately but generously shared with Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection for all to appreciate. Its depiction captures not only geographical features but also emotions evoked by encountering such vastness and mystery within East Africa’s unexplored territories.
