Sir Henry Morton Stanley and His Men Emerging from the Central African Forest - A Moment of Triumph and Relief (1890)
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving, we witness the moment of triumph and relief experienced by Sir Henry Morton Stanley and his companions as they exit the dense forest of Central Africa, marking the end of their 160-day journey. Stanley, the renowned Anglo-American journalist and explorer, is depicted in the center, carrying his walking stick with a sense of determination and accomplishment. The men, filled with joy and excitement, are shown leaping and racing over the ground with their burdens, their faces expressing pure elation. Stanley's letters from the expedition describe the scene as "the light of broad day shining all around us, making all things beautiful." The men, according to his account, "literally yelled and leaped for joy" upon seeing the light after days of continuous gloom. This historical moment is captured perfectly in this engraving, which showcases the relief and joy felt by Stanley and his team as they emerged from the forest. The year was 1890, and Stanley's expedition was a significant achievement in the exploration of Central Africa. His journey was marked by numerous challenges and hardships, but the sight of the light at the end of the forest was a testament to their perseverance and determination. This image is a reminder of the courage and spirit of adventure that characterized the age of exploration and discovery.
