Le plateau Ethiopien; Le Nord-Est Africain,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating black and white print from the 1910s, showcases a mesmerizing representation of the Ethiopian Plateau and the northeastern region of Africa. The image, published in "Grande Geographie Bong Illustree" in 1914, offers a glimpse into the geographical features of this intriguing continent, specifically focusing on Ethiopia and the surrounding areas. The print showcases the vast expanse of the Ethiopian Plateau, a highland region located in the Horn of Africa. The plateau is depicted with its undulating terrain, dotted with scattered trees and small settlements. To the north, the mighty Blue Nile River snakes its way through the landscape, originating from Lake Tana, the largest lake in Ethiopia. The source of the Nile, one of the world's most iconic and historically significant waterways, is highlighted in the print. The print also reveals the presence of the mountains that characterize the Ethiopian landscape. The mountains, with their snow-capped peaks, provide a striking contrast to the arid plateau and the lush vegetation along the riverbanks. The print invites us to explore the rich geographical diversity of this region, which is home to a myriad of landscapes, from the highlands to the lowlands, and from the deserts to the wetlands. The print, an engraving from the 20th century, is a testament to the enduring allure of geographical exploration and discovery. Its intricate details and meticulous execution transport us back in time, allowing us to witness the beauty and complexity of a region that continues to captivate the imagination of travelers and scholars alike. The print serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural and cultural heritage for future generations.
