EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from 1852 depicts the infamous Mary Read, a fearsome pirate who roamed the seas in the early 18th century. Created by Alexandre Debelle after an original work by P. Christian, this print showcases Mary Read's audacious and bloodthirsty nature. In this striking portrait, Mary Read is shown in all her defiant glory. With a pistol in one hand and a cutlass in the other, she exudes power and determination. Her female form is exposed, revealing her breasts as if to challenge societal norms and expectations of women at that time. Despite being disguised as a man for most of her life, Mary Read's true identity is shockingly revealed through this artwork. The artist skillfully captures both her strength and vulnerability simultaneously – bleeding wounds on her chest symbolize not only physical defeat but also the emotional toll of living a double life. Mary Read's partnership with Anne Bonney and Captain John Rackham was legendary within pirate lore. Together they struck fear into the hearts of their enemies, leaving behind a trail of horror and destruction wherever they went. This historic engraving serves as a reminder of Mary Read's indomitable spirit and unwavering resolve amidst a world dominated by men. It immortalizes her legacy as one of history's most notorious pirates – forever etching her name alongside Calico Jack himself in tales of piracy that continue to captivate our imaginations today.
