EDITORS COMMENTS
A Merchants Ship with a Key, 1658 - An intriguing image of a seventeenth-century English merchant ship sailing on the open sea, adorned with a prominent key in both English and Latin inscriptions. This evocative print, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history of maritime trade during this period. The Latin inscription, "Sigillum Navem Mercatoriam," translates to "The Seal of a Merchant Ship," while the English inscription reads "The Key of a Merchant Ship." The inclusion of these inscriptions adds an air of mystery and significance to the image, suggesting that the ship and its cargo held great importance. Merchant ships played a crucial role in the economic development of Europe during the seventeenth century. They transported a wide range of goods, including textiles, spices, and precious metals, between different continents. The ships were often large and well-equipped, with crews that could number in the hundreds. This particular print, produced in 1658, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. The ship is depicted with sails fully hoisted, catching the wind and propelling the vessel forward. The intricate details of the ship's rigging, as well as the various structures and features visible on the deck, attest to the skill and craftsmanship of the shipbuilders and sailors of the time. The inclusion of the key in the image adds an additional layer of intrigue. It is unclear what the key unlocks or represents, but it may be a symbol of the ship's cargo or a reference to the ship itself being a valuable asset. Overall, this print provides a captivating window into the world of seventeenth-century maritime trade and the important role that merchant ships played in shaping the economic and cultural landscape of Europe.
