EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Raft of Puayaquil" from Colombia, as depicted in the book "Le costume ancien et moderne" by Ferrario. The image captures a sailing raft expertly manufactured using bamboo, highlighting the ingenuity and craftsmanship of Colombian artisans. The raft is a remarkable example of traditional South American boat-building techniques, reflecting the rich maritime heritage of Colombia. Its construction with bamboo demonstrates resourcefulness and adaptability to local materials. This sustainable approach to manufacturing boats not only showcases their practicality but also their harmonious integration with nature. As we delve into this historical artwork, we are transported back to 1819-20 Milan when Ferrario's publication first introduced readers to this fascinating cultural artifact. Leonard de Selva's masterful capture allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of the raft while evoking a sense of awe for its creators. Beyond being a mere means of transportation, this raft symbolizes the interconnectedness between humans and their environment. It serves as a reminder that our ancestors relied on such vessels for survival and exploration across vast waterways. Through this photograph, we gain insight into Colombian history and culture while marveling at the beauty and functionality of this ancient mode of transport. Leonard de Selva's work preserves not only an important piece of art but also an invaluable part of human heritage for generations to come.
