EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lantern slide, taken in the late 1890s, depicts a moment of intrigue and wonder in the heart of British South Africa, specifically in what is now known as Zimbabwe. The image, part of the Boswell Collection, Box 288, in Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of the African wilderness and the complex relationship between man and nature that defined the colonial era. In the foreground, a native man, dressed in animal skins and adorned with beads and other traditional accessories, gazes intently at a majestic lion that stands before him. The lion, the undisputed king of the African savannah, appears calm and almost regal, its golden mane framing its powerful face. The scene is set against the backdrop of a vast, open landscape, with tall grasses swaying gently in the breeze and the sun casting long shadows across the terrain. This image offers a glimpse into the past, a time when European explorers and settlers were making their mark on the African continent. It also highlights the awe and fascination that the native people of Zimbabwe (then known as Rhodesia) held for the wildlife that surrounded them. The native man's careful approach to the lion, with one hand outstretched as if in a gesture of peace, underscores the deep respect and connection that existed between the people and the land they inhabited. As we view this image today, we are transported back in time, offering us a unique perspective on a bygone era and the rich history of Zimbabwe. The native man and the lion, frozen in time, serve as a reminder of the complex and enduring relationship between man and nature, a relationship that continues to shape our understanding of the world around us.
