EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured map, dating back to 1799, offers a fascinating glimpse into the exploratory spirit of the 1790s as it depicts Africa with the recorded routes of notable travellers Parke, Browne, and Le Vaillant. The map, held in the esteemed collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, provides a detailed representation of the African continent during a time when European exploration was at its height. The map is adorned with intricate colouring, highlighting various geographical features such as the vast Sahara Desert, the Nile River, and the Red Sea. The Mediterranean Sea and the Indian Ocean encircle the continent, reflecting the significance of maritime exploration during this era. The map also shows the territories of Spain and Portugal, reflecting their colonial influence in Africa. At the bottom of the map, the routes of Parke, Browne, and Le Vaillant are marked, providing a testament to their intrepid journeys across the African continent. Parke's route is shown from Tripoli to Timbuktu, Browne's from the Mediterranean to the Cape of Good Hope, and Le Vaillant's from the Cape of Good Hope to Ethiopia. These explorers' accounts provided valuable information about the African continent, contributing to the growing body of knowledge about the diverse cultures, landscapes, and peoples of Africa. The map also features labels for various African countries, including Madagascar, Ethiopia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea, among others. The map's intricate details and historical significance make it an essential resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the history of exploration and the African continent.
