EDITORS COMMENTS
The Visit of H Ms 'Ruby' to Staten Island, Tierra del Fuego (engraving) captures a poignant moment in history. This 19th-century engraving by the English School depicts the arrival of H Ms 'Ruby', a ship belonging to Captain Allen Gardiner and the South American Missionary Society. In September 1851, amidst treacherous conditions and Christianized inscriptions on rocks, the crew discovered a group of starving Fuegians on Staten Island. Moved by their plight, Captain Gardiner founded an orphanage for these children who had lost their companions to starvation. The image portrays the solemn visit of H Ms 'Ruby' to this newly established orphanage. The children, dressed in simple attire, stand on rocky terrain as they eagerly await the arrival of their benefactors. Their faces reflect both hope and gratitude for this unexpected act of kindness. This engraving serves as a reminder that even in remote corners of the world, compassion can bridge cultural divides and bring solace to those in need. It encapsulates an extraordinary chapter in human history when empathy triumphed over adversity. Today, this artwork stands as a testament to Captain Gardiner's legacy and his dedication towards improving lives. It is through such historical prints that we gain insight into forgotten stories and honor those who have made lasting impacts.
