EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century copper engraving by Martin Engelbrecht, after a drawing by Jacques Rigaud, depicts the apparatus involved in the procurement of food and water for triremium galleys in the Western Mediterranean during the Early Modern Era. The intricate scene unfolds in the vibrant waters of the Mediterranean Sea, with a panoramic view of the bustling activity aboard the galleys. The triremium, a type of ancient Greek warship, is anchored in the foreground, its three banks of oarsmen in action, propelling the vessel forward. In the background, smaller boats laden with provisions and water jostle for position, their colorful sails and banners adding a dynamic element to the composition. The flag of Spain, with its distinctive design of a red cross on a golden background, flies proudly from one of the boats, signifying the nationality of the galleys. The triremium's crew, clad in various stages of undress, are shown transporting water and foodstuffs from the smaller boats to the galley, using buckets and other implements. The intricate details of the engraving, from the textured water to the individual faces of the sailors, bring the scene to life, offering a glimpse into the logistical challenges of sustaining long voyages on the open sea during this period. This work of art, with its rich historical significance, is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the maritime communities of the Early Modern Era.
