EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph, "Drake's Attack upon San Domingo, 1586" published in Harper's Magazine in 1883, transports us back to a significant historical event. Created by the talented artist Howard Pyle (1853-1911), this print showcases Sir Francis Drake and his daring assault on San Domingo. Intriguingly detailed, the artwork depicts a fierce skirmish between Drake's troops and the defenders of San Domingo. The brandywine school influence is evident as every stroke captures the intensity of battle. The scene portrays soldiers engaged in hand-to-hand combat with swords and bayonets while firing rifles amidst the chaos. Amidst this melee lies devastation; colonial exploration has brought destruction to this once peaceful land. Fallen bodies lay strewn across the battlefield, representing both wounded and deceased soldiers from both sides. This image serves as a grim reminder of the price paid for conquest during that era. As we observe this historic clash unfold before our eyes, it becomes apparent that beyond military strategy and weaponry lies another aspect: medicine and health. Injured combatants are seen receiving medical attention or being carried away for treatment—a testament to the importance placed on healing even amidst conflict. This lithograph not only provides insight into an important chapter in history but also offers an opportunity for reflection on colonization's impact on indigenous populations. It stands as a visual representation of bravery, sacrifice, and ultimately raises questions about power dynamics within colonial expeditions. Through Pyle's master
