EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a hand-coloured engraving of "The British Virgin Islands" by Georges-Louis Le Rouge in 1779. The artwork, measuring 44x58 cm, is housed at the Boston Public Library in Massachusetts, USA. Created by Thomas Jefferys after an original piece, this vintage map offers a fascinating glimpse into the colonial era. "The British Virgin Islands" depicts the islands as they were perceived and explored by the English and Danish during that time. Translated from English to French as "Les Vierges, leveIues par les Anglais et par les Dannois" this map provides valuable insight into the British Empire's presence in the West Indies. With its intricate cartography and tropical aesthetics, this engraving transports viewers back to an era when mapping was both scientific and artistic. It serves as a reminder of how these islands played a significant role within the context of Caribbean history. As we admire this historical gem from Bridgeman Images' collection, it is important to note that it falls under public domain due to being out of copyright. Let us appreciate not only its beauty but also its cultural significance as we explore the rich heritage of these enchanting British Virgin Islands through art.
