EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene of a raft departing from the bustling port of Guayaquil, Ecuador. Taken from Le Costume Ancien et Moderne, Volume II, plate 9 by Jules Ferrario and engraved by Paolo Fumagalli in the early 19th century, this image showcases the artistry and skill of these talented individuals. The vibrant colors brought to life through lithography transport us back in time to witness this remarkable moment. The raft itself stands as a testament to human ingenuity and resourcefulness, serving as both shelter and transportation for those brave enough to venture out into the vast ocean. As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of the primitive nature of sailing during that era. With its simple mast and fire burning brightly on board, it is clear that these sailors relied on their instincts and knowledge passed down through generations. Baron von Humboldt's illustration serves as an invaluable historical document capturing Latin American coastal life during this period. It offers us a glimpse into a world far removed from our own but still resonates with its timeless beauty. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind its creation but also invites us to reflect on humanity's enduring spirit of exploration and adventure.
