EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Les chutes de Rippon; Le Nord-Est Africain' (Rippon Falls, Northeast Africa), was published in the renowned French geographical magazine 'Grande Geographie Illustree' in 1914. The image showcases the breathtaking beauty of Rippon Falls, located in the northeastern part of Africa, near Lake Victoria in what is now Uganda. During the early 20th century, Africa was a significant part of the British Empire, and this photograph is a testament to the European fascination with the African continent's natural wonders. The image captures the power and majesty of the waterfall as it cascades down the rocky cliffs, creating a stunning contrast between the tranquil waters of the river above and the frothy white rapids below. The photograph's title, 'Rippon Falls,' may refer to the explorer Sir Wilfrid Scawen Blunt, who was known as 'Ripon' and had explored the region around Lake Victoria in the late 19th century. The area around the falls is rich in natural resources, and the region was later colonized by the British, who named it Uganda. The photograph is a reminder of the enduring allure of Africa's natural beauty and the role that European exploration played in documenting and preserving it for future generations. Despite the passage of time, the image remains a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a moment in history when the world was being discovered and documented in new and exciting ways.
