EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Map of Central Africa from the year 1902, an era marked by intense colonialism and imperialistic pursuits. The creator of this map remains unknown, but its historical significance cannot be understated. With vibrant colors and intricate details, it provides a visual representation of the colonial possessions held by various European powers in Central Africa during that time. The map highlights notable territories such as Italian Somaliland, Portuguese East Africa, German East Africa, British Central Africa, and French Congo. Each country's presence is depicted with precision and accuracy, offering insights into the extent of their influence on the continent. This snapshot from The Century Atlas of the World published by John Walker & Co in London transports us back to an age when nations vied for control over vast expanses of land. As we examine this artifact closely, we are reminded of the complex dynamics at play during this period - imperialism shaping destinies and borders being redrawn. It serves as a reminder that history is not just about dates and events; it also encompasses human stories and struggles for power. Preserved by The Print Collector in collaboration with Heritage Images, this photograph allows us to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical value. It invites us to reflect upon how our world has evolved since then while acknowledging the lasting impact that colonialism has had on African countries even today.
