EDITORS COMMENTS
The Thames, or The Triumph of Navigation," a masterpiece by James Barry, was published in 1792, showcasing a captivating image of the River Thames in England during the 18th century. This engraving with etching on cream laid paper is a testament to the artistic prowess of the Irish artist, who brilliantly personified the river as a triumphant deity, complete with a chariot drawn by Nereids, the sea nymphs. The Thames, depicted as a regal figure, holds the helm of a ship, symbolizing the control and mastery of the waterway, which was a crucial artery for commerce and manufacturing in Britain during this period. The river god is flanked by two prominent figures from maritime history - Sir Francis Drake and Captain James Cook, who are depicted as victorious captains, their ships anchored in the estuary. Mercury, the messenger god, is also present, personifying the swift and far-reaching nature of navigation. The image is further enriched by the presence of a group of people, including a man in the guise of Guy, the mythical protector of the Thames, and a female figure representing Commerce. This powerful and evocative image not only captures the spirit of the 18th century, but also the sense of national pride and achievement that came with the exploration and mastery of the sea. The Triumph of Navigation remains an enduring symbol of Britain's rich maritime heritage and the pivotal role the Thames played in shaping its history. This print is a must-see for anyone interested in art, history, or the maritime world, and is a treasured addition to any art center, art gallery, or art institute's collection.
