EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Congo and the Founding of its Free State. A Story of Work and Exploration," provides a glimpse into the 19th century landscape of the Congo region in Africa, specifically at Vivi station. The image, taken from Henry M. Stanley's publication, "El Congo y la Creacion del Estado Independiente de este nombre," offers a panoramic view of the meandering Congo River, which was a crucial waterway for exploration and trade during this era. The image showcases the natural beauty of the region, with the river winding its way through the lush landscape, surrounded by mountains and dense vegetation. The river's course is dotted with commercial boats, which were essential for transporting goods and people up and downstream. At the center of the image is Vivi station, a significant trading post during the late 19th century. The station, which appears as a collection of thatched huts and structures, was a hub of activity for both African and European traders. The Congolese people, who are depicted in the foreground, are shown engaged in various activities, including fishing and tending to their crops. The engraving provides an intriguing overview of the Congo during the 19th century, a time of intense exploration and colonization. The image captures the natural beauty of the region, as well as the commercial and cultural exchanges that took place along the Congo River. This engraving, which was edited in Barcelona around 1890, is a valuable historical document that offers a unique perspective on the Congo during this period. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the natural wonders of the African continent and the people who called it home during a time of significant change and transformation.
