EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster, produced by the Empire Marketing Board in the 1930s, showcases the majesty of the West African mahogany forest. The image transports us to the heart of the jungle, where the towering trees stretch towards the heavens, their leaves casting dappled sunlight onto the forest floor. Small monkeys can be seen gracefully swinging on long creepers, adding a sense of vibrant life to the scene. The West African mahogany tree, known for its rich, red wood, was highly prized during the colonial era for its use in furniture and construction. The poster's creation reflects the intense interest in the natural resources of Africa during this period, as European powers sought to expand their empires and exploit the continent's wealth. The Empire Marketing Board, established in 1926, was a British government organization tasked with promoting trade between the United Kingdom and its colonies. Posters like this one were used to generate excitement and interest in the exotic products and places of the British Empire. The poster's striking design, with its bold use of color and dynamic composition, would have captured the imagination of viewers and encouraged them to explore the wonders of the African continent. Today, this poster serves as a powerful reminder of the complex history of colonialism and the global trade in natural resources. It also highlights the beauty and diversity of the natural world, and the importance of preserving it for future generations.
