EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the native village of Kituta, situated on the eastern shore of Lake Tanganyika in Central Africa, around halfway down the lake from Ujiji. The village, which was visited by Lieutenant Verney Lovett Cameron's boating party on April 9, 1876, is nestled at the foot of a headland characterized by towering granite blocks. The picturesque scene is further enhanced by the collection of grass huts, which are defended by a stockade on the land side. Behind the stockade, the steep hill is covered by a thick forest, adding an element of mystery and intrigue to the image. The print, which was published in the Illustrated London News in 1876, offers a glimpse into the geography and culture of Central Africa during the height of European exploration. The granite hills and water of Lake Tanganyika create a stunning contrast, highlighting the unique beauty of the African continent. The print also serves as a testament to the rich history of exploration and discovery, as Lieutenant Cameron and his party ventured into uncharted territory, documenting their findings for the world to see. The print, which is engraved and dates back to the nineteenth century, is a valuable addition to any collection focused on African art, arts, exploration, or geography. Its historical significance and aesthetic appeal make it a must-have for scholars, collectors, and enthusiasts alike.
