EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to a wharf in Mozambique, a former Portuguese province. Taken by an Italian School artist in the 19th century, this image captures the essence of this African harbor with remarkable detail. The composition showcases the bustling activity of the port, as ships docked and unloaded their cargo against a backdrop of palm trees swaying gently in the breeze. The engraving beautifully depicts the fusion of European influence and African culture that characterized Mozambique during its colonial era. The architecture of the wharf reflects Portuguese design elements, while local fishermen can be seen going about their daily routines nearby. This snapshot offers a glimpse into a time when trade and exploration connected distant lands, leaving lasting imprints on both sides. Preserved within a private collection, this historical gem allows us to reflect upon Mozambique's rich past and its journey towards independence. Giancarlo Costa's masterful capture ensures that we can appreciate every intricate detail for years to come.
