EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Explorations in Vigo Bay, diving for Treasure sunk in 1702" takes us back to a momentous event in maritime history. Created by an English School artist during the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The scene depicted showcases a group of divers and ships engaged in the exciting pursuit of treasure beneath the waters of Vigo Bay. The year was 1702 when numerous vessels laden with riches sank during a fierce naval battle. This illustration originally appeared in the Illustrated Times on July 16th, 1870. As we gaze at this artwork, we are transported to that era filled with adventure and anticipation. The boats floating above the sunken treasures evoke both curiosity and awe.

We can almost feel ourselves being pulled into its watery embrace as we witness these brave explorers delving into history. This engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also reminds us of Europe's vibrant past and its significant contributions to global exploration.
