EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "African Traveller Attacked by A Lion, c1880" takes us back to the 19th century when adventure and exploration were at their peak. The image is a powerful depiction of a brave African traveller on horseback being confronted by a ferocious lion in the wilds of Africa. The sepia-toned photograph captures the intensity of the moment as both man and beast are locked in a battle for survival. The speed and agility of the horse convey a sense of urgency, while the lion's menacing presence reminds us of nature's raw power. In this extraordinary scene, we witness not only an encounter between man and animal but also a metaphorical representation of courage in the face of danger. The lone figure on horseback symbolizes human resilience and determination against all odds. Taken from "The Life and Explorations of David Livingstone The Great Missionary Traveller" publication by Adam & Co. , London, this print offers us a glimpse into the life-threatening challenges faced by explorers during that era. It serves as a testament to Dr David Livingstone's remarkable journey through uncharted territories in Africa. As we admire this historic snapshot frozen in time, let it remind us to appreciate our own adventures, however big or small they may be. May it inspire us to embrace our own journeys with bravery and curiosity just like those intrepid travellers who paved the way for future generations.
