EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty and mystery of Africa in the 19th century. The image showcases floating islands on the Upper Congo River, a scene that was immortalized in Henry M. Stanley's book "The Congo and the Founding of its Free State."
In this engraving, we see a landscape teeming with life - from exotic plants and birds to aquatic animals gliding through the water. The European exploration of Africa during this time period is evident in the presence of boats navigating through the river.
The lush vegetation, including palm trees and other flora, creates a panoramic view that transports us back to a bygone era. This snapshot offers a glimpse into the natural world as it appeared centuries ago, before modernization changed its face forever.
As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded of the rich history and diverse ecosystems that make up the African continent. It serves as a reminder of our connection to nature and our responsibility to preserve its beauty for future generations to enjoy.
This print is not just an image; it is a window into another time, inviting us to explore and appreciate all that Africa has to offer.
