1857 Buffalo Exploration Herd Interrupted Living Stone Procession Travelling
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to 1857 during the era of African exploration. The image depicts a travelling procession led by the renowned British explorer, Dr. David Livingstone, as he and his companions make their way through the vast African wilderness. The scene is set against the backdrop of a seemingly endless savannah, dotted with acacia trees and tall grasses swaying gently in the breeze. Livingstone, dressed in his explorer's attire, is seen at the head of the procession, gesturing towards something in the distance. His companions, a mix of European explorers and African porters, follow closely behind, each carrying supplies and equipment essential for their journey. However, the tranquility of the moment is disrupted by the sudden appearance of a herd of buffalo in the distance. The massive beasts, with their large, curved horns and powerful build, charge towards the procession, causing the explorers to halt in their tracks. The porters quickly gather up the supplies, and Livingstone and his companions prepare for a potential confrontation. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the challenges and dangers faced by explorers during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of the bravery and determination required to venture into the unknown and the unpredictable nature of the natural world. The intersection of human exploration and the wild African landscape is beautifully captured in this historical image, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of African exploration history.
