EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving is taken from Eliza Rotch Farra's "The Adventures of Congo in Search of his Master," published by J. Harris and Son in London in 1823. The image depicts two scenes from Congo's journey, which began in Italy in 1823. In the first scene, Congo, an enslaved person, shares his heart-wrenching story with Mr. Cooper, a kindly Englishman. The second scene shows Congo being threatened by a beggar while in the livery on the back of a coach in Cork, Ireland, in 1828. Eliza Farra, the author of this children's book, was the daughter of a Nantucket whaling family. Her vivid illustrations, created by skilled engravers such as Giulio Ferrario, Giambattista Borghi, and Giarrè, bring the story to life. The illustrations depict Congo's travels through various regions of Europe, including Sardinia, Lombardy, Venice, Rome, Tuscany, Parma, Naples, and Corsica. The illustrations showcase the rich history and culture of each location, with intricate details of ancient and modern costumes worn by the people. The illustrations of Italy, in particular, showcase the beauty and grandeur of the Italian peninsula, with scenes of Florence, Venice, and Rome. The hand-colored copperplate engraving process used to create these illustrations was a popular method of the time, allowing for intricate details and a high level of visual quality. This image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of 19th-century Europe and the experiences of an enslaved person on the run. The illustrations continue to captivate and inspire, offering a unique perspective on history, fashion, and the peoples of the world.
