EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph map from 1884 offers a mesmerizing birds-eye view of the Sudan and its neighboring countries in Africa. The intricate details and artistic craftsmanship transport us back to a time when exploration and colonialism were at their peak. The map showcases the vast expanse of north, central, and east Africa, highlighting key geographical features such as rivers and mountains. However, what truly sets this print apart are the portraits featured on it - those of General Charles Gordon and Colonel Herbert Stewart. Both men played significant roles in the historical events that unfolded in Khartoum. General Charles Gordon's portrait reminds us of his valiant service during his time at Khartoum, while Colonel Herbert Stewart's presence adds another layer to this narrative of British empire expansion. Their inclusion serves as a testament to their contributions within the context of colonialism. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we cannot help but be transported to an era where boundaries were being redrawn both physically and politically. This lithograph map is not just an artistic representation; it encapsulates a pivotal moment in history when European powers sought control over African territories. Granger Art on Demand has once again provided us with an extraordinary glimpse into our past through this thought-provoking print from their collection.
