Created by Guillaume Raynal in 1780, this coloured engraving showcases the intricate details of these once-thriving kingdoms. As we gaze upon this map-like artwork, we are transported to an era when Venezuela, Colombia, Surinam, French Guyana, Brazil, Ecuador and the Caribbean were divided into distinct territories. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he meticulously depicts the borders and geographical features that defined these regions. The vibrant colors used in this print bring life to the lush landscapes and winding rivers that crisscrossed these lands. It serves as a visual reminder of the rich biodiversity found within these territories - from the mighty Amazon rainforest to the vast plains stretching towards distant horizons.
