EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historically significant print captures the essence of the Spanish-American War, showcasing a detailed map of Spanish colonies during the late 19th century. Created by French School artists, this colour lithograph is now part of a private collection. The map itself offers a fascinating glimpse into the vast empire Spain once held across various continents. From Cuba to the Philippines, from Europe to Asia, it showcases Spain's extensive colonial reach. The Canary Islands in Africa and several West Indies islands are also prominently featured. With Havana as its capital, Cuba stands out on this map as one of Spain's most important possessions in the Caribbean. This image serves as a reminder of how pivotal this region was during the conflict between Spain and the United States. As we delve deeper into history through this artwork, we gain insight into not only political boundaries but also cultural exchanges that occurred between European powers and their colonies. It sheds light on themes such as colonialism and imperialism prevalent during that era. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance. It allows us to reflect upon an era when global power dynamics were shifting dramatically, ultimately shaping our modern world today.
