EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment during the historic Expedition Around the World led by Jean Francois Galaup de La Perouse. In this scene, the sailors have just debarked on Saghalian Island (Sakhaline) and encounter an old man who presents them with a hand-drawn map of Tartaria. The illustration is taken from "The Great Mariners of the 18th century" a renowned work by Jules Verne. The image transports us back to 1785-1788, when exploration and discovery were at their peak. It showcases not only the courage and determination of these French explorers but also highlights their encounters with different civilizations along their journey. The meeting between the sailors and this wise old man symbolizes cross-cultural communication as they exchange knowledge about geography, population, and anthropology. The map itself provides valuable insights into ancient Tartaria, offering glimpses into its rich history and civilization. Through this photograph, we witness a pivotal moment in world exploration that shaped our understanding of distant lands like Russia, Mongolia, Tataria, Siberia, and more. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and our innate desire to explore new frontiers. With its intricate details captured in black-and-white engraving style by Stefano Bianchetti in the 19th century, this print offers both artistry and historical significance for those fascinated by marine expeditions or seeking to delve deeper into our collective past.
