RAFFLES 1819 Leather Luggage Tag ( SG Bicentennial Collection )

ARKADEMIE launched the SINGAPORE BICENTENNIAL Collection on the 6th February 2019, exactly 200 years the Singapore Treaty was signed between Sir Stamford Raffles, Sultan Hussein and Temenggong, establishing the first British Settlement in Singapore.

The map image on the cover is inspired by the very first map of the Singapore Harbour drawn by Captain Daniel Ross, a hydrographer accompanying Sir Stamford Raffles, in February 1819 prior to the signing of the Singapore Treaty.  The map was then officially published in May 1819 in the Calcutta Journal.  It is believed that this map was instrumental in the Treaty negotiation between Raffles and Temenggong on the 6th February 1819.
