EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases Francis Farewell, the founder of the Port Natal Colony in Southern Africa in 1823. The image depicts a distinguished man with an air of determination and authority. Francis Farewell was a key figure in colonial history, representing the Farewell Trading company that played a significant role in establishing British presence in South Africa. The composition captures Farewell amidst a native African tribe's camp, highlighting his interaction with indigenous people and their way of life. This portrayal emphasizes the complexities of colonialism during the 19th century, as it shows both cooperation and conflict between different cultures. The print offers a glimpse into the early days of settlement at Port Natal, which would later become Durban, one of South Africa's major cities. It serves as a reminder of Britain's imperial ambitions during this era and its impact on local communities. Richard Caton Woodville II skillfully brings this historical moment to life through his detailed artwork. The lithograph is part of "The Story of the British People in Pictures" published by Odhams Press Ltd in London around 1936. This powerful image not only celebrates Francis Farewell's pivotal role but also prompts reflection on the broader themes surrounding colonization and cultural exchange between Europe and Africa during this time period.
