EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Bushwoman in holiday attire during the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist, showcases the beauty and cultural significance of this African woman's outfit. Dressed in vibrant summer clothes, she adorns herself with exquisite jewelry items that sparkle and catch the eye. Her earrings, delicately crafted and hanging gracefully from her ears, add a touch of elegance to her overall appearance. A stylish hat completes her ensemble, adding a sense of sophistication to her holiday look. The illustration was originally featured in "South African Discovery" by N. D. Anvers in 1878, offering readers a glimpse into the exploration and discovery of Central Africa during that time period. This engraving serves as a visual representation of the rich diversity found within South Africa's indigenous communities. Displayed against a black-and-white backdrop, this image beautifully contrasts tradition with modernity. It is not only an artistic masterpiece but also an important historical document showcasing early 19th-century fashion trends and cultural heritage. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece for future generations to appreciate and learn from. Through their efforts, we are able to witness the beauty and resilience embodied by this Bushwoman in holiday attire – truly capturing the spirit of exploration and adventure during that era.
