1871 Exploration Found Living Stone Meet Stanley Ujiji Presume
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a truly iconic moment in history - the historic meeting between Dr. David Livingstone and H.M. Stanley at Ujiji in November 1871. The image freezes this pivotal event in time, as Stanley famously uttered the words "Dr. Livingstone, I presume?" upon finally locating the renowned explorer after months of searching through the African wilderness.
The expressions on both men's faces are filled with a mix of relief, astonishment, and curiosity as they come face to face for the first time. Dr. Livingstone appears weary yet determined, while Stanley exudes a sense of triumph at having successfully found his elusive counterpart.
This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the spirit of exploration and discovery that characterized this era in history. It symbolizes not only the meeting of two great explorers but also the bridging of cultures and continents through their shared passion for adventure.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when Africa was still largely uncharted territory and brave individuals like Livingstone and Stanley risked everything to push the boundaries of human knowledge. Their encounter marked a turning point in our understanding of the world around us and continues to inspire generations of adventurers and historians alike.
In acquiring this stunning print from Mary Evans Picture Library, we bring a piece of this extraordinary story into our own homes, allowing us to reflect on the remarkable events that shaped our collective past.
