EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait depicts Henry the Navigator, also known as Prince Henry of Portugal and Henrique, the Navegador (1394-1460), a pivotal figure in Portuguese history and European exploration. As the director of the Portuguese Royal Court of Navigation and Global Expansion, Henry played a crucial role in the Age of Discoveries. Born in 1394, Henry was the youngest son of King John I of Portugal and Philippa of Lancaster, making him a member of the Portuguese royalty. However, his true passion lay not in the royal court but in the vast, unexplored waters beyond the known world. Henry's dedication to exploration began in earnest in the 1420s, when he established a school for cartography and navigation in Sagres, a southwestern region of Portugal. This institution attracted skilled navigators, cartographers, and shipbuilders, who worked together to expand Portugal's maritime knowledge and capabilities. Under Henry's leadership, Portuguese explorers made significant strides in discovering new lands, including the Madeira and Azores islands, the west coast of Africa, and even the tip of South America. Henry's vision and determination laid the groundwork for Portugal's dominance in the Age of Discoveries and set the stage for the country's global influence. This evocative image of Henry the Navigator, with his stern gaze and regal bearing, serves as a testament to his indomitable spirit and visionary leadership. The intricate details of his attire, including his richly embroidered robes and the emblem of the Order of Christ on his hat, underscore his status as a prince and a man of great power and authority. This portrait is a captivating reminder of the pivotal role Henry played in shaping the course of history and expanding the boundaries of human knowledge.
