EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1586 when the legendary Sir Francis Drake captured the boat "Saint Augustin". The artwork, skillfully created by Theodore de Bry in 1590, beautifully captures this historic event. The scene depicts a dramatic moment as Drake's ship looms over the smaller vessel, its crew scrambling in panic. The attention to detail is exquisite; every line and stroke of the engraving brings life to this intense encounter on the high seas. Drake, known for his daring exploits as a corsair, is shown commanding his men with unwavering determination. His strategic prowess and fearless spirit are palpable through De Bry's masterful artistry. This print not only showcases an iconic historical event but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and exploration during that era. It reminds us of the audacity and bravery required to navigate uncharted waters and conquer unknown territories. Giancarlo Costa has expertly preserved this significant piece of history through his meticulous restoration work on this private collection artwork. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but be captivated by both its artistic brilliance and its ability to transport us back in time. This remarkable engraving stands as a testament to both De Bry's talent as an artist and Drake's indomitable spirit as an explorer who shaped our understanding of maritime history forever.
