EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Michiel van der Gucht depicts Humphrey Gilbert, an influential figure in English history during the 16th century. As an English soldier and navigator, Gilbert played a significant role in expanding British colonialism. Born in 1539, he was the half-brother of another renowned explorer, Walter Raleigh. In 1583, Gilbert achieved a momentous feat by claiming possession of Newfoundland for the English crown. This act solidified England's presence in North America and laid the foundation for future British colonization efforts on this continent. Van der Gucht's intricate engraving beautifully captures Gilbert's determination and strength as he takes hold of Newfoundland on behalf of his country. The attention to detail showcases the Tudor-era fashion and weaponry that were characteristic of this period. Clarendon's History serves as the inspiration behind this artwork, highlighting its historical significance. The print not only commemorates Humphrey Gilbert but also pays tribute to his contributions to British exploration and expansion during a time when global powers sought dominance over new territories. As we admire this remarkable piece from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are reminded of how individuals like Humphrey Gilbert shaped our world through their bravery and ambition.
