Stanley's Anglo-American expedition for the exploration of Central Africa.

In this engraving from 1878, we witness a boat sailing along a majestic river in Unyoro, Africa. The exterior setting showcases the beauty and vastness of the African landscape that awaited exploration by these brave adventurers. As they disembark from their sailboat, men dressed in traditional African attire warmly welcome them. The presence of livestock suggests that this encounter took place within a local community where agriculture played a vital role in their livelihoods. A servant stands nearby, ready to assist with any needs that may arise during this historic meeting.
