EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - "The landing of the French for the establishment of the new colony in the port of Nouvelle Cayenne (or France Equinoxiale), 1762". Painted by an unknown artist in the 18th century, this engraving showcases a pivotal event during the era of colonialism. The image depicts a scene filled with anticipation and excitement as French settlers arrive at the port of Nouvelle Cayenne to establish their new colony. The composition is rich with details, showcasing ships anchored near the shore while men and women disembark onto land. The vibrant colors used by Leonard de Selva bring life to this historical moment, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in this significant event. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of France's ambitious efforts to expand its influence across distant lands. This particular endeavor took place in Guyana, known then as Nouvelle Cayenne or France Equinoxiale. It serves as a reminder of how nations sought to extend their power through colonization during that period. This print from Fine Art Finder offers us a glimpse into our shared past and invites us to reflect on both the triumphs and consequences of colonialism. It stands as a testament to human ambition, exploration, and cultural exchange that shaped our world today.
