This sketch, titled "Ladies of the Royal Family" by John Thomas Baines, portrays a group of native ladies residing at Lo Bengulus, a temporary residence on the Umzingwhane or Inzingwhaine River, in April 1870. Baines, an accomplished artist and explorer, documented his travels extensively through a collection of original sketches during his expedition in Southern Africa between 1859 and 1871. The ladies, dressed in their traditional attire, radiate an air of regality and grace. Their intricately designed garments, adorned with beads, feathers, and other natural materials, reflect the rich cultural heritage of the region. The ladies' serene expressions and poised posture convey a sense of dignity and pride, highlighting their importance within their community. Baines' meticulous attention to detail is evident in the way he captures the ladies' expressions, their clothing, and the surroundings. The sketch provides a glimpse into the daily life of the native inhabitants during the Victorian era, offering valuable insights into their customs and traditions. The sketch, "Ladies of the Royal Family," is a testament to Baines' exceptional artistic abilities and his commitment to documenting the people and places he encountered during his exploration of Southern Africa. This image offers a unique perspective on the region's history and the lives of its inhabitants during the 19th century.
