EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Stuck in a bog, Bulawayo to Dett, Southern Rhodesia" captures the arduous journey undertaken by Stella Court Treatt and her husband Major Chaplin Court Treatt in 1924-1926. The image is part of the book "Cape to Cairo" written by Stella Court Treatt herself. The photograph showcases an extraordinary moment during their groundbreaking expedition from Cape Town to Cairo. It depicts a group of determined men struggling with their vehicle stuck deep in mud on the treacherous road between Bulawayo and Victoria Falls. This particular section of their journey took an astonishing four months due to heavy rains and unforgiving terrain. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era when travel was not for the faint-hearted but rather for those who possessed unwavering determination and courage. The image encapsulates the spirit of adventure and exploration that characterized early 20th-century expeditions into uncharted territories. Through this photograph, artist Thomas A Glover masterfully conveys both the physical challenges faced by these intrepid travelers as well as the metaphorical struggles they encountered along their path. It serves as a testament to human resilience against nature's obstacles. This remarkable print offers us a glimpse into history, reminding us of the hardships endured by pioneers like Stella Court Treatt and Major Chaplin Court Treatt who paved the way for future generations' adventures across Africa's vast landscapes.
