EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print showcases Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza's remarkable journeys of exploration in the French Congo from 1875 to 1886. The image, created by an anonymous European School artist in the late 19th or early 20th century, captures the essence of this educational expedition. In the foreground, we see a group of African bearers carrying a litter through the dense Central African landscape. Their strength and determination reflect their vital role in supporting de Brazza's exploratory mission. This scene serves as a reminder of Africa's rich cultural heritage and its significant contribution to global history. The portrait of de Brazza himself occupies a prominent position within the print, symbolizing his pivotal role as an explorer during the Scramble for Africa era.
