EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from 1878 depicts the renowned English explorer Verney Lovett Cameron arriving at the village of Oulonnda in Africa. The print, part of a private collection, showcases Cameron during his remarkable travels through Central Africa between 1872 and 1876. In this scene, we see Cameron being carried by African natives in a hammock as they make their way towards the village. Dressed in colonial attire, including a pith helmet and pipe in hand, he exudes an air of relaxation amidst the exotic landscape. Cameron's expedition was not only an exploration but also a representation of European colonialism during that era. This image captures both the curiosity and arrogance often associated with these explorations. It serves as a reminder of how Western travelers viewed themselves as superior to the indigenous people they encountered on their journeys. The wood engraving is taken from "El Mundo en la Mano" or "The World in Your Hands" published in 1878. Its inclusion within this publication suggests its significance as an illustration representing global exploration at that time. As we admire this historical artwork, it prompts us to reflect on the complexities surrounding travel and exploration during periods marked by imperialism and cultural encounters.
