Painting Description
"An African Korah Chieftain's Daughter" is a notable artwork by the English artist Samuel Daniell (1775–1811), who was known for his detailed and evocative representations of African landscapes and peoples during the early 19th century. This particular work is part of a series of aquatints that Daniell produced based on his experiences and observations while he was in southern Africa. Samuel Daniell undertook an expedition to the region as the official artist of the British mission to the Cape Colony and the interior of present-day South Africa from 1799 to 1802.
The artwork depicts a young woman from the Korah (or Khoikhoi) people, who were indigenous pastoralists in the region. Daniell's portrayal is significant as it provides a visual record of the Khoikhoi people and their cultural attire during a period of substantial change and upheaval due to European colonization. The image is characterized by its attention to ethnographic detail and is considered an important historical document, as well as a work of art.
Samuel Daniell's aquatints, including "An African Korah Chieftain's Daughter," were published in a collection titled "African Scenery and Animals" (1804–1805), which contributed to European knowledge and perceptions of Africa at the time. The collection was well-received for its artistic merit and for the light it shed on the largely unknown African interior. The works of Samuel Daniell are held in various museum collections and continue to be studied for their intersection of art, ethnography, and colonial history.
