EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back to the final moments of renowned explorer David Livingstone's journey through Central Africa. The Last Journals of David Livingstone in Central Africa is beautifully depicted, showcasing a stream flowing gently amidst the untamed wilderness. This print, preserved in a private collection, offers a glimpse into Livingstone's remarkable expeditions and his enduring legacy. The image highlights an autograph facsimile of Livingstone's handwriting, providing an intimate connection with the man himself. It captures the essence of his last mile, as he bravely ventured deeper into uncharted territories that had yet to be explored by Western civilization. Livingstone's note book lies open on Susi's mouth - one can only imagine what profound thoughts and observations were recorded within its pages. The engraving serves as a testament to Livingstone's tireless travels across Africa and his unwavering dedication to understanding this vast continent and its people. Intriguingly, African figures are scattered throughout the scene, symbolizing both the diversity and interconnectedness of African cultures during this time period. They serve as reminders that while Livingstone may have been an outsider exploring their lands, he also sought to learn from them and respect their way of life. This mesmerizing artwork transports us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand Livingstone’s last entry before disappearing into history. It invites contemplation about his extraordinary achievements and inspires curiosity about what mysteries still lie hidden within Central Africa today.
