EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Mashonaland and Manicaland" takes us on a visual journey through the rich landscapes and vibrant cultures of Zimbabwe in the late 19th century. Created by Amedee Forestier, this print captures the essence of Mashonaland and Manicaland with intricate detail. The image showcases various aspects of life in these regions during that time. From the imposing architecture to tribal customs, every element tells a story. In the foreground, we see tribespeople carrying goods while dressed in traditional attire, highlighting their strong connection to their heritage. The presence of King Lobengula adds an air of regality and authority to the scene. Notably, there is also a glimpse into everyday life with scenes depicting people enjoying beer at Gumbo or engaging in social activities at Ballyhooley Hotel. These moments offer insights into social dynamics and leisure pursuits during this era. The lithograph also features significant landmarks such as Fort Salisbury and Elliotts Mission Station, which were instrumental in shaping colonial history within these territories. Overall, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical document. It provides viewers with a window into Zimbabwe's past – its diverse culture, architectural marvels, and societal norms – inviting us to reflect upon how these elements have evolved over time.
