Created in 1780 by Charles Marie Rigobert Bonne, this colored engraving offers a glimpse into the beauty and allure of these Indian Ocean islands. The image transports us to a time long gone, where we can marvel at the intricate details of each island's topography. The map highlights the unique features that make Rodriguez, Isle de France (now known as Mauritius), and Bourbon (now called La Réunion) so enchanting. From rugged coastlines to lush vegetation, every element is meticulously captured. As we explore this historic artwork, it becomes evident why these islands have fascinated explorers and travelers for centuries. The vibrant colors used in the engraving bring life to the landscape, immersing viewers in its natural splendor. This print serves as a window into an era when cartography was both scientific exploration and artistic expression.
