EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the history of Africa in the 19th century, showcasing a boat upstreaming the Fimi River towards Lake Leopold II. The engraving, part of "The Congo and the Founding of its Free State" by Henry M. Stanley, provides a glimpse into the European colonialism and exploration that shaped this region.
In this image, we see a Belgian vessel navigating through the lush vegetation along the riverbed, highlighting the impact of European presence on the African continent during this era. The steam engine powering the boat symbolizes both progress and exploitation as it pushes further upstream.
The panoramic view offers an overview of this historical moment, capturing not just a transportation scene but also a glimpse into how nature and human intervention intertwined in shaping the landscape. As we reflect on this snapshot from late 19th-century Congo, we are reminded of both the beauty and complexity of Africa's past.
Through Prisma Archivo Fotografico's lens, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how exploration and colonization unfolded in this part of Africa. This print serves as a visual reminder of our shared history and invites us to contemplate the legacy left behind by those who came before us.
