The Explorations at Cape Juby: A Glimpse into the Adventurous Journey of Travellers in 19th Century Africa". This engraving, created by the English School in the 19th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into the explorations at Cape Juby on the North-West Coast of Africa. The print captures an illustration originally featured in The Graphic on November 2nd, 1889. In this scene, we witness a group of intrepid travellers embarking on a remarkable journey through uncharted territories. Led by Colonel Baron Lahure and accompanied by Mr. Donald Mackenzie, founder of the projected town of Tarfaya, they set out to explore and establish settlements along this rugged coastline. The image showcases their arrival at Cape Juby's port and their encounter with Lieutenant Fourcault amidst vast stretches of Sahara desert. As they traverse through Dowrah Plain, these brave adventurers navigate treacherous terrain while documenting their findings for future study. The engraving beautifully depicts both the excitement and challenges faced by these courageous individuals as they venture further into unknown lands. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and our innate desire to discover new frontiers. Through this historical artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the spirit of exploration that characterized this era. It reminds us that even today, there is much left to be discovered and explored across our diverse world.
