EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century litography print depicts a scenic outdoor scene in the Portuguese colony of Cape Verde. The image, housed in the Historical Archive of Lisbon, Portugal, transports us back in time to a period of Portuguese rule over the archipelago. The sun-drenched day is brought to life through the vibrant use of color, with the warm golden light casting long shadows over the rugged terrain. In the foreground, a group of women are gathered, their figures silhouetted against the bright sky. They are dressed in traditional attire, their feminine forms adding a touch of grace and elegance to the scene. The women appear to be engaged in various activities, from tending to their crops to socializing with one another. The background of the print reveals a bustling port scene, with ships anchored in the harbor and people going about their daily business. The scene exudes a sense of activity and energy, as the Portuguese colony thrived under the rule of its European overlords. This litography print offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life of a Portuguese colony in the 19th century. The use of color and light adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a truly captivating and evocative piece of historical art.
