EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back in time to a Korah Hottentot Village on the Left Bank of the Orange River. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of this African community, showcasing their unique culture and way of life. In this scene, we see a young girl standing near an intricately designed hut made from natural materials. She is surrounded by members of her tribe, who are engaged in various activities. A group of goats grazes peacefully nearby, symbolizing their close connection with nature. The village itself exudes a sense of simplicity and harmony with its surroundings. The river flowing gently in the background adds to the tranquility and sustenance that it provides for both humans and animals alike. Although nudity is depicted among some members of the tribe, it serves as a reminder of their authentic lifestyle untouched by modern civilization. Their bodies adorned only with minimal accessories highlight their pride in their heritage and traditions. This engraving offers us a glimpse into an ancient world that existed long before our time. It invites us to appreciate the diversity and richness found within different cultures across Africa while reminding us to cherish our own roots as well.
