EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Death of Livingstone" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Engraved by the English School in the 19th century, this image captures the solemn scene of Dr. David Livingstone's arrival and remains on deck after his passing. As we gaze upon this poignant engraving, we witness missionaries gathered around, paying their respects to the renowned explorer and missionary. The atmosphere is heavy with grief as they lay Dr. Livingstone's coffin on deck, preparing for his final journey home. Intriguingly, even though death has claimed him, there is an air of reverence surrounding this image. It serves as a testament to Dr. Livingstone's remarkable life and accomplishments that captured not only the attention of those onboard but also that of Queen Victoria herself. The backdrop reveals an exotic location known as Malwa where he was laid to rest in a tomb surrounded by other sepulchres and headstones. These tombs stand as silent witnesses to countless lives lost but also serve as reminders of human resilience and exploration. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to reflect upon mortality while appreciating the legacy left behind by individuals like Dr. David Livingstone who dared to venture into uncharted territories for knowledge and enlightenment.
