EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitographic print from the early 1900s showcases a detailed map of Malaysia or the Sunda Islands, complete with intricate cartography and a view of the capital city Batavia. The vibrant colors bring to life the flag of Italy, hinting at the colonial influence in this region during that time period. The promotional atlas illustrated by Fernet Branca provides a unique glimpse into European exploration and expansion into Southeast Asia, specifically highlighting Java, Sumatra, Borneo, and other key islands in the Malay Archipelago. The inclusion of floral motifs adds an elegant touch to this historical piece. As we admire this artwork, we are reminded of Italy's role in promoting loyalty and patriotism through its advertising efforts. The presence of alcoholic beverages like Fernet Branca serves as a testament to the thriving food industry at that time. Overall, this print is not just a map but a symbol of cultural exchange and colonialism in the twentieth century. It captures the essence of liberty and diversity while showcasing the beauty of cartography in an era marked by exploration and discovery.
