EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in history - the first encounter between native men and a white woman in Sudan, 1925. Taken by artist Thomas A Glover, this image is part of the renowned book "Cape to Cairo" by Stella Court Treatt, which chronicles her groundbreaking journey from Cape Town to Cairo with her husband Major Chaplin Court Treatt. In an era marked by limited transportation options, their expedition was a testament to human curiosity and the spirit of adventure. As the native men gaze upon the white woman with intense curiosity, one can only imagine their thoughts and emotions at this unprecedented sight. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of cultural exchange and exploration during that time. The monochrome composition adds depth to this historical snapshot, emphasizing both the stark contrast between races and the unity found in shared fascination. It offers us a glimpse into an era when road transport was still evolving and Africa remained largely uncharted territory for many British explorers. As we reflect on this image today, it reminds us of our collective past while also highlighting how far we have come in terms of global understanding and acceptance. It invites us to celebrate diversity and appreciate those who paved the way for cross-cultural connections through their brave expeditions like Stella Court Treatt's unforgettable journey across continents.
