EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Growth of European and Japanese Dominions in Asia since 1801" takes us on a visual journey through the historical expansion of these two powerful forces. Created by William R. Shepherd, this colour lithograph is a remarkable illustration for his Historical Atlas. As we gaze upon this intricate map, we are transported back to the early 19th century when Europe and Japan began their quest for dominion in Asia. The vibrant colours bring life to the territories that were once under European and Japanese control, showcasing their vast influence across the continent. From Peking (now Beijing) to distant regions within Asia's vicinity, Shepherd meticulously captures each conquest with precision. This print not only serves as an educational tool but also evokes a sense of wonder about the growth and development of these dominant powers during that era. Furthermore, it is fascinating to observe mythological figures scattered throughout the map, reminding us of the intertwining relationship between religion and history. These pagan symbols symbolize polytheistic beliefs prevalent in various Asian cultures at that time. "The Growth of European and Japanese Dominions in Asia since 1801" offers viewers an opportunity to delve into a rich tapestry of historical events while appreciating Shepherd's artistic prowess. It stands as a testament to both human ambition and cultural diversity within our shared past.
