EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the passage of the Angostura in Colombia, as seen from a steamboat during an expedition. The drawing, created by E. Riou and featured in Le tour du monde in 1877, beautifully illustrates Edouard Andre's voyage to equinoxial America (Colombia, Ecuador, Peru) in 1875-1876. Edouard Andre, a traveler entrusted with a mission by the French government, embarked on this remarkable journey through South America. The image showcases the steamboat navigating through the river with its flag fluttering proudly against the backdrop of billowing smoke. The engraving exudes a sense of adventure and discovery as it transports us back to that era. It invites us to imagine ourselves aboard that very vessel, witnessing firsthand the breathtaking landscapes and vibrant cultures encountered along this extraordinary expedition. The fine details captured within this print showcase not only Riou's artistic talent but also serve as a testament to Leonard de Selva's skillful photography. Through their collaboration, we are granted access to history unfolding before our eyes. This print is part of Selva Collection and serves as both an educational resource for those interested in historical explorations and an exquisite piece of art that can be admired for its intricate composition and evocative atmosphere.
