EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a scene from 19th century South Africa, showcasing the Boers on a trek to new pastures for their cattle. The image, created by Albert Richter, offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this region. In the foreground, we see a group of rugged men leading their livestock through the vast Transvaal landscape. The Boers, known for their resilience and resourcefulness, are depicted with determination as they navigate challenging terrain in search of greener pastures for their precious cattle. The presence of wagons and horses emphasizes the importance of transportation during this time period. A wagonette is hitched to several horses while others ride horseback alongside. These means of transport were essential for both travel and trade in an era before modern infrastructure. Amongst the herd of cattle, we spot a loyal collie dog diligently guarding its master's valuable assets. This canine companion serves as a reminder of the symbiotic relationship between humans and animals in agricultural societies. The engraving not only showcases historical aspects but also highlights elements of adventure and sport. It evokes feelings of wanderlust as these brave travelers embark on an arduous journey through untamed lands. Overall, this print offers viewers an opportunity to delve into South Africa's vibrant past while appreciating its natural beauty and cultural heritage.
