EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century map of Africa, available as a print from Mary Evans Prints Online, provides a captivating visual representation of the intrepid explorations that transformed our understanding of the African continent. Illustrating the travels of renowned explorers David Livingstone, Henry Morton Stanley, and Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza, this map is a testament to the spirit of discovery that characterized the Victorian era. The map, richly detailed and vibrantly colored, charts the explorers' routes across the vast expanse of Africa, from the arid Sahara Desert in the north to the lush rainforests of the Congo Basin in the south. The Sahara Desert is coded in sandy hues, while the verdant Nile Valley and the fertile lands of Egypt and Nubia are depicted in lush greens. Madagascar, an island nation off the eastern coast of Africa, is shown in earthy browns and greens, while the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Peninsula are rendered in warm sands and blues. The Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean frame the western and northern edges of the map, their deep blues contrasting with the golden sands of the desert and the lush greens of the African interior. The map's intricate cartography reveals the explorers' routes, from Livingstone's travels in Southern Africa to Stanley's famous encounter with Livingstone in Ujiji, and de Brazza's exploration of the Congo Basin. This map is not only a historical document, but also a work of art, capturing the imagination and wonder of a time when the world seemed full of unexplored mysteries. It invites us to explore the rich history of Africa and the intrepid explorers who helped shape our understanding of this fascinating continent.
