EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts the Galleon Saint Lucia, a prominent vessel from the 17th century, during an expedition led by English captain Robert Thornton at the behest of Grand Duke Ferdinand I of Tuscany in 1608. The objective of this mission was to establish a colony in America, specifically in the northern regions of Brazil. The image captures the grandeur and intricacy of the galleon, with its tall mast and sails fully hoisted, ready to navigate the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. The ship's name, "Saint Lucia," is prominently displayed on the side, while the Italian flag flies proudly at the stern. The exploration and establishment of colonies in the New World were significant events during the Age of Discovery. Europeans, driven by a thirst for knowledge, resources, and power, embarked on daring voyages to the far reaches of the globe. The Amazon River, with its rich natural resources, was a particular draw for explorers and colonizers. Robert Thornton, an experienced English captain, led this expedition for Grand Duke Ferdinand I of Tuscany. The duke, a ruler from Italy, sought to expand his territories and influence, and believed that establishing a colony in Brazil would be a valuable addition to his holdings. This engraving is a testament to the spirit of exploration and discovery that characterized the 17th century. It serves as a reminder of the remarkable feats of navigation and sailing that were accomplished during this period, as Europeans set sail from their shores to explore new lands and establish colonies across the sea.
