EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage 19th-century engraving captures the devastating Small Pox Epidemic at Cape Town in 1883. The scene unfolds at "Renzskie's Farm" which served as a temporary hospital during this dark period in South African history. The first sketch portrays an ambulance arriving from Cape Town, bringing in patients who are suffering from the contagious disease. The urgency and despair on their faces are palpable, reflecting the gravity of the situation. In contrast, the second sketch depicts a runaway patient, perhaps overwhelmed by fear or desperation to escape confinement. This image serves as a reminder of how individuals were affected differently by this epidemic and highlights the challenges faced by medical professionals trying to contain its spread. Finally, we see a glimpse of hope in the third sketch—a convalescent dinner. Here, recovering patients gather together for a meal, symbolizing resilience and recovery amidst adversity. Through intricate engravement techniques characteristic of Victorian artistry, this historic print offers us insight into one of humanity's darkest chapters while showcasing the illustrative beauty that defined 19th-century culture. As we reflect on this engraving from Liszt Collection's archives, it is crucial to remember not only the historical significance but also to acknowledge those who suffered during such epidemics and honor their resilience in overcoming these challenging times.
