1576 Frobisher Greenwich Martin Passage Passing Sails Search

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - Martin Frobisher's expedition in search of a north-west passage. As he sails down the Thames, passing by the majestic Greenwich Palace, one can't help but feel transported back to 1576 and imagine the anticipation and excitement that must have filled the air. The image is rich with historical significance, showcasing Britain's thirst for exploration and discovery during this era. Frobisher's determination to find a new route to the East Indies speaks volumes about the adventurous spirit of those times. The grandeur of Greenwich Palace serves as a stark contrast to the ruggedness of Frobisher's ship, highlighting the clash between old world elegance and new world ambition. It is a reminder of how far we have come in terms of maritime technology and global connectivity. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are reminded of the courage and tenacity required to embark on such perilous journeys. The events depicted in this print are not just mere historical footnotes; they are testaments to human ingenuity and resilience. Mary Evans Picture Library has truly captured an iconic moment from our past with this stunning photograph. It serves as a poignant reminder of our collective quest for knowledge and adventure throughout the ages.
