EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a striking contrast between Pygmy natives and English officers, Sudanese, and Zanzibaris in 1890. The wood engraving, created by the English School in the 19th century, showcases an important moment from the Emin Pasha Relief Expedition in Africa. The image is taken from Sir Henry Morton Stanley's renowned book "In Darkest Africa" published in 1890. It offers a glimpse into the colonial era and explores themes of exploration, colonialism, and the British Empire's influence on African lands. Lined up side by side, we see the distinct physical differences between these diverse groups. The Pygmy natives stand out with their smaller stature compared to the towering figures of the English officers and other African tribesmen. Each person wears unique attire that reflects their cultural background. The presence of pith helmets worn by some of the officers symbolizes their authority within this expedition. This visual juxtaposition highlights not only physical disparities but also power dynamics during this period of history. This thought-provoking illustration provides valuable insight into an era marked by exploration and imperialistic ambitions. It invites us to reflect on how different cultures interacted during this time while raising questions about representation, identity, and historical narratives.
