This print showcases the English Embassy in Ivory Coast, circa 1820. The engraving, created by Angelo Biasioli (1790-1830) and reproduced from a private collection, offers a glimpse into the history of colonialism during that era. Located in Komassi, West Africa, this grand embassy symbolizes the influence and presence of England in this region. The image portrays an architectural marvel with intricate details and stunning craftsmanship. Its imposing structure stands tall against the backdrop of lush greenery, evoking a sense of power and authority. The artist's skillful use of color brings life to this historic scene, allowing viewers to imagine what it must have been like during those times.
