EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Young Woman from a Neighbouring Tribe to the Picts, from Admiranda Narratio" transports us back in time to an era of exploration and discovery. Engraved by Theodore de Bry in 1585-88, this coloured engraving showcases the artistic talent of John White. The image depicts a young woman belonging to a neighboring tribe of the Picts, an ancient people who inhabited what is now Scotland. Dressed in traditional attire, she stands proudly with a sword and spear, embodying strength and resilience. Her bare breasts symbolize her connection with nature and her role as a warrior within her community. This artwork is part of the renowned "Grands Voyages" which chronicles Thomas Hariot's journey to Virginia in 1585. It offers us a glimpse into the lives of early Scots and Pictish cultures through intricate details captured by White's skilled hand. As we admire this engraving housed at Service Historique de la Marine in Vincennes, France, we are reminded of the rich history that lies behind every civilization. The young woman's fierce gaze invites us to explore further into the depths of our past and appreciate the diversity that exists among different tribes and societies. Through this powerful visual representation, we are transported to an ancient village where bravery thrived amidst untamed landscapes. This print serves as both an educational tool for historical enthusiasts and a reminder that beauty can be found even within unconventional portrayals.
