EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Whaling fleet off Greenland in the 18th century" takes us back to a time when adventure and danger were intertwined on the open seas. Created by Sieuwert van der Meulen and beautifully captured by Ken Welsh, this print transports us to the vast waters of Greenland during the 18th century. The scene depicts a bustling whaling fleet engaged in their perilous pursuit. The boats, both rowboats and tugboats, dot the expansive coastline as they navigate through treacherous waves. These vessels serve as means of transport for brave sailors who risked their lives in search of these magnificent creatures. Amidst this maritime spectacle, we catch glimpses of wildlife that call this region home. Majestic black bears roam along the shoreline with young cubs by their side, adding an element of natural beauty to this dramatic scene. As our eyes explore every detail meticulously engraved into this artwork, we are reminded of the rich history shared between Denmark and Greenland. This European Union member state holds a significant place in whaling history and remains deeply connected to its coastal roots. "Whaling fleet off Greenland in the 18th century" not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our enduring relationship with nature's wonders.
