EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: This photo print, titled "Awemba girl, Livingstone to Broken Hill, Northern Rhodesia, 1925 (1927)", showcases the remarkable journey undertaken by Stella Court Treatt and her husband Major Chaplin Court Treatt. The image was captured by renowned artist Thomas A Glover as part of the book "Cape to Cairo", published in 1927. The photograph portrays a young Awemba girl from Zambia, gazing confidently at the camera with an air of curiosity and resilience. Her face reflects both innocence and wisdom beyond her years, embodying the spirit of adventure that characterized this groundbreaking expedition across Africa. As pioneers of motoring exploration in the early 20th century, Stella and Chaplin Court Treatt embarked on an extraordinary quest from Cape Town to Cairo between 1924 and 1926. Their daring journey through various terrains showcased their determination to traverse the African continent using motor vehicles. This black-and-white monochrome portrait captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to British explorers venturing into uncharted territories during the height of colonialism. It symbolizes both cultural exchange and discovery within a rapidly changing world. Thomas A Glover's photogravure technique beautifully renders every detail of this awe-inspiring image while evoking nostalgia for an era when such expeditions were considered groundbreaking achievements. This print stands as a valuable historical artifact that celebrates female empowerment, African heritage, and human resilience amidst challenging circumstances.
