EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Antilles and the Gulf of Mexico" takes us on a visual journey through the Caribbean islands and the vast expanse of the Gulf. Created by Guillaume Raynal in 1780, this coloured engraving is part of his renowned Atlas de Toutes les Parties Connues du Globe Terrestre. As we gaze upon this historical map, our eyes are immediately drawn to the intricate details that bring these lands to life. From Cuba's iconic shape to Haiti and the Dominican Republic sharing Hispaniola, each island is meticulously depicted with precision and accuracy. The vibrant colors used in this print add an element of enchantment to its composition. Shades of green represent lush vegetation while various shades of blue beautifully depict surrounding waters. This combination creates a harmonious balance between land and sea. Beyond just aesthetics, this map also serves as a testament to exploration during that era. It showcases not only well-known destinations like Jamaica and the Bahamas but also lesser-known regions such as Honduras and Nicaragua. This particular print captures a moment frozen in time—a snapshot from centuries ago when these territories were still being discovered by explorers seeking new horizons. Now preserved within a private collection, it offers us an opportunity to reflect on our shared history while appreciating both the artistry behind its creation and its significance as a valuable piece of cartographic heritage.
