EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving titled "Xeme, illustration from A Voyage of discovery" takes us back to the 19th century and invites us on a journey of exploration. The print is part of Thomas Lewin's remarkable collection featured in his book "A Voyage of discovery, made under the orders of the Admiralty, in His Majestys Ships Isabella and Alexander". Published in London in 1819 by John Murray, this publication aimed to explore Baffins Bay and investigate the possibility of a North-West Passage. The image showcases an exquisite Xeme bird gracefully soaring through Arctic skies. Its fork-tailed silhouette against a backdrop of vast icy landscapes evokes a sense of wonder and adventure. As we gaze upon this ornithological marvel, we are reminded that it was British explorers who ventured into uncharted territories with intrepid spirits. Lewin's meticulous attention to detail brings this scene to life, capturing not only the beauty but also the scientific significance behind each feathered creature encountered during their voyage. This engraving serves as a testament to both Lewin's artistic talent and his dedication to documenting these extraordinary discoveries. As we admire this piece from our private collection today, let us appreciate the courage and curiosity that drove these early travellers and explorers towards new horizons. May it inspire us to embark on our own voyages of discovery – whether they be physical or metaphorical – always seeking knowledge beyond familiar shores.
