EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Granger Art on Demand takes us back to a significant moment in history - the conviction of two notorious pirates, Ann Bonny and Mary Read. The year is 1720, and these fearless women are facing trial for their acts of piracy. The line engraving, created in English in 1724, beautifully captures the intensity and drama of this historic event. In the image, we see Ann Bonny and Mary Read standing side by side, both exuding an air of defiance. Their eyes reflect a combination of determination and resignation as they face their fate. Dressed in pirate attire with swords at their sides, they embody strength and rebellion against societal norms. The setting is St. Jago de la Vega on the island of Jamaica where a Court of Vice Admiralty has been convened to pass judgment upon them. This court was known for its strict enforcement against pirates during that era. Ann Bonny and Mary Read's story is one that challenges traditional gender roles; they were among the few female pirates who dared to defy expectations during this time period. Their courage continues to inspire generations even today. This print serves as a powerful reminder of these extraordinary women who fearlessly sailed through treacherous waters while defying societal conventions along the way. It stands as a testament to their indomitable spirit and unwavering determination amidst adversity.
