EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a manuscript from 1505, depicting the warships that were part of the armadas of Portugal under King Manuel I. The image takes us back to a time when these majestic vessels ruled the seas, symbolizing the power and ambition of the Portuguese empire. The intricate details and vibrant colors in this illuminated miniature bring life to each ship, evoking a sense of awe and admiration for their craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we can almost hear the sounds of waves crashing against their hulls and feel the salty breeze on our faces. These warships were not only symbols of naval might but also important tools for exploration and trade during Portugal's golden age. They carried brave sailors who ventured into uncharted waters, discovering new lands and establishing colonies across distant shores. Through this photograph, we are reminded of King Manuel I's vision for his nation's maritime dominance. It serves as a testament to Portugal's rich seafaring history and its significant contributions to world exploration. Displayed in Paris' Bibliotheque Nationale, this manuscript is an invaluable piece of art that allows us to glimpse into an era long gone. It stands as a reminder that even centuries later, these warships continue to inspire wonderment and fascination among those who appreciate both history and fine art.
