EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historical significance of "The Berlin Conference" with great detail and precision. The gravure, created by Anton Alexander von Werner in the late 19th century, showcases a pivotal moment in European history. "The Berlin Conference" refers to a gathering of major European powers held in Berlin from November 1884 to February 1885. The purpose of this conference was to discuss and regulate colonial territories and trade in Africa. Von Werner's engraving beautifully depicts the grandeur of this significant event. In this digitally cleaned image, we can see distinguished statesmen seated around a large table adorned with maps and documents. These men represent various nations such as Germany, France, Britain, Portugal, Belgium, Italy, Spain, and the United States. Their serious expressions reflect the weighty decisions being made that would shape the future of Africa. The fine details captured by Bridgeman Images allow us to appreciate not only von Werner's artistic talent but also his ability to convey historical accuracy through his work. This print serves as an invaluable visual record of an important chapter in global politics. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Great Men and Famous Women edited by Charles Horne (Selmar Hess), we are reminded of how art can transport us back in time and provide insight into our shared human history.
