Central Africa Map dated 1890 showing European Possessions. Original title: "The Graphic map of South-Central Africa: shewing the British & German possessions." This is an enhanced, restored reproduction of an historic map showing European colonization in South Central Africa in the late 19th century. This restored, detailed reproduction documents the extent of European control in this part of Africa. The nations claiming territory include the British, Germany, Italy, France, and Portugal.


I have selected interesting, old 19th and early 20th century graphic images for digital restoration and editing. The images were then adjusted and brightened to make the images suitable for display and other purposes. The resulting image brings out many details and landmarks, making this map a great historical reference and conversation piece. © 2023 for this restored reproduction.
