SUGAR GROWING IN MAURITIUS: A Glance into the Colonial Past". This vintage print, dating back to 1927, showcases a British Empire Board poster that takes us on a journey to the picturesque island of Mauritius.

As we delve deeper into the details of this artwork, it becomes evident that sugar production played a significant role in shaping both the economy and culture of this African colony.
