An African woman stands beside a sign that reads "David Livingstone cut his initials on this tree in 1855".

By the shores of the Zambesi river, two Africans remove a large branch. By the rapids above the falls, a European stands on the rocks and splashes his feet in the water.

A party of Europeans board canoes at the river's edge. they look at the rapids, the falls and the gorge looking up at the Victoria Bridge.
