EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph by Lefman, titled "Bushmen driving off cattle belonging to the Kaffirs" takes us back in time to South Africa's rich history. The print showcases a dramatic scene of bushmen hunters on horseback fiercely pursuing a herd of cattle owned by the Kaffir tribe. In this intense moment frozen in time, we witness the skilled warriors skillfully maneuvering through rugged terrain as they drive off their coveted prize. With determination etched on their faces, these bushmen display their expertise in capturing and spoiling valuable booty - the prized cows that symbolize wealth and sustenance for their tribe. The composition beautifully captures the essence of an ancient tribal conflict, highlighting both the bravery and resourcefulness of these indigenous people. As we gaze at this historical artwork, we are transported into a world where survival depended on hunting prowess and territorial disputes were settled through daring raids. Copied from caves near Hermon, this illustration originally appeared in The Picture Magazine. It serves as a powerful reminder of our collective past and sheds light on cultural dynamics within South Africa during that era. Through this lithograph's intricate details and vivid imagery, viewers can appreciate not only its artistic value but also gain insights into the complex relationships between different tribes in South Africa's history.
