EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1891 engraving from the Liszt Collection showcases the diverse and breathtaking South African plains. The image beautifully captures the varying character of these vast landscapes, with some gently undulating hills adorned in long grass, while others stretch out as flat expanses covered in dense bush for miles on end. Amidst this natural beauty, scattered stunted thorns add a touch of ruggedness to the scene. In this particular moment frozen in time, a group of travellers has encountered the mail delivery on their march across these magnificent plains. The arrival of the English mail is met with great anticipation and excitement as it brings news from home. Everything else is momentarily set aside as they eagerly gather to read letters filled with updates and messages from loved ones afar. The engraved image not only serves as a historical artifact but also exemplifies the illustrative technique prevalent during Victorian times. Its retro-styled aesthetic transports us back to an era where engravement was considered an art form itself. As we gaze upon this vintage print, we are reminded of South Africa's rich cultural heritage and its awe-inspiring natural wonders that continue to captivate explorers and enthusiasts alike.
