EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures English Admiral Augustus Keppel in a moment of intense contemplation before the Council of War. The scene takes place after the historic Naval Battle of Ouessant, which occurred 100 nautical miles west of the island during the American War of Independence on 27 July 1778. Painted by an unknown artist from the 19th century and now part of a private collection, this engraving showcases Keppel's commanding presence as he strategizes with his fellow officers. The image transports us back to a pivotal moment in history when nations clashed over ideals and territories. The battle itself was fought between British and French forces off the coast of Brittany, France. As we gaze upon Admiral Keppel's stern expression, we can almost feel the weighty decisions that lay ahead for him and his comrades. Intriguingly, this artwork also serves as a reminder of America's fight for independence during this tumultuous period. It symbolizes not only Britain's struggle to maintain control over its colonies but also America's determination to break free from imperial rule. Stefano Bianchetti skillfully brings life to this historical event through his masterful engravings. His attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in the drama and tension that unfolded during those fateful days at sea. As we admire this remarkable piece, let it serve as a testament to human resilience and our unyielding pursuit for freedom throughout history.
