EDITORS COMMENTS
In this litho print titled "Swallow, A Tale of the Great Trek" we are transported back to the late 19th century. The artwork, created by William Hatherell and now part of a private collection, depicts a scene from the renowned novel "Swallow" by H. Rider Haggard. The image showcases a moment filled with tension and anticipation. A young man named Piet is seen on horseback, his eyes fixed on the horizon as he embarks on an arduous journey known as the Great Trek. His lips slightly parted in determination, Piet seeks adventure and new horizons. As he rides through vast landscapes and treacherous terrains, Piet encounters various challenges along his path. The artist skillfully captures this pivotal moment when Swallow springs forward with grace and strength under its rider's command. Hatherell's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this engraving; it beautifully conveys both the physical prowess of Swallow and the emotional depth within Piet's character. Through their collaboration, Haggard's words come alive on paper. This litho print not only serves as a visual representation of an iconic literary work but also invites us to reflect upon our own journeys in life - those moments when we must summon courage and resilience to overcome obstacles that lie ahead.
