EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The pirate Charles Gibbs and Vansley buried their treasure (early 19th century)" takes us back to the thrilling world of pirates in the 1800s. The image depicts two notorious pirates, Charles Gibbs and Vansley, as they carefully bury their ill-gotten wealth deep within a hidden location. The scene is filled with intrigue and mystery as these corsairs secure their treasure for safekeeping. Their faces are etched with determination, knowing that this hoard represents a lifetime of pillaging on the high seas. The artist's attention to detail brings every element to life - from the weathered expressions on their faces to the intricate engravings adorning their clothing. "The Pirate Own Book" published in 1837 by an anonymous author, serves as inspiration for this remarkable piece. It offers a glimpse into the dangerous yet alluring world of piracy during that era. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but wonder about the adventures these pirates embarked upon and what led them to amass such vast riches. This artwork reminds us of our fascination with tales of swashbuckling rogues who defied authority and sought fortune at any cost. Giancarlo Costa's skillful reproduction allows us to appreciate this historical artifact while immersing ourselves in its narrative. We are reminded that even though piracy was an illegal profession, it continues to captivate our imagination centuries later through art like this engraving.
