EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a hand-coloured engraving titled "Santiago, from Drakes West Indian Voyage 1585 - 86". Created by the talented artist Baptista Boazio in 1589, this artwork takes us back to an era of exploration and adventure. The image depicts a fleet of British ships sailing through the vast expanse of the West Indies, guided by a meticulously detailed chart. At the forefront of this maritime scene is Francis Drake himself, one of history's most renowned explorers. His presence adds an air of excitement and curiosity to the composition. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to a time when brave sailors embarked on perilous journeys across uncharted waters. The enchanting colours used in this hand-coloured engraving bring life to every element within it. From the flying fish gracefully leaping out of the ocean waves to the English flag proudly fluttering atop each ship's mast, every detail tells a story. The inclusion of Cape Verde further emphasizes the significance and scale of these voyages as they ventured into unknown territories. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation that captures our imagination with its intricate portrayal of exploration at sea. Displayed here in all its glory from Fine Art Finder's private collection, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate not only Boazio's skillful craftsmanship but also Drake's audacious spirit that forever changed world history.
