EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "We made them sing" depicts a mesmerizing engraving by the French School from the 19th century. This artwork, now part of a private collection, was created as an illustration for Jules Verne's renowned book "The Great Navigators of the Eighteenth Century" published in 1880. In this enchanting scene, we witness a group of courageous explorers embarking on a voyage of discovery. They have arrived at Tierra de Fuego, where they encounter the indigenous people known as Pecheians. The explorers' arrival has brought joy and excitement to these inhabitants, who express their gratitude through song and dance. The image beautifully captures the essence of exploration and geographical curiosity that defined this era. It reminds us of the bravery and determination exhibited by these early navigators as they ventured into uncharted territories in search of new lands and knowledge. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness not only the physical landscapes explored but also the cultural exchanges that occurred during these expeditions. It serves as a testament to humanity's innate desire to explore our world and connect with others across different cultures. This remarkable artwork is an invaluable piece that encapsulates both historical significance and artistic brilliance. Its presence evokes wonderment while inviting us to reflect upon our own thirst for adventure and understanding in today's ever-changing world.
