EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Page 7 (a) View of Porto Santo" takes us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the world of exploration and mapping. The image showcases the stunning coastline of Porto Santo, stretching from NNW to WBW, with a distance of 5 miles. The ink inscription along the lower edge provides valuable information about this view. In addition to this expansive coastal view, another section of the print reveals a different perspective - "View of Porto Santo bearing north". This particular angle shows us an alternate side of the island, located at a distance of 2 leagues. Both views capture the essence and beauty of this isolated and deserted landscape. The artwork itself is part of an album containing original sketches, drawings, maps collected by Admiral Isaac Smith. Created by William Hodges between 1768-75 during Captain Cook's Second Voyage, these drawings and watercolors offer invaluable insights into geographical explorations during that era. Displayed in Mitchell Library at State Library New South Wales, this remarkable piece showcases Hodges' talent in capturing not only landscapes but also elevations and profiles accurately. The grey tones used in depicting this coastal scene add depth and evoke a sense of tranquility amidst vast oceanic surroundings. Overall, this print serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression—an ode to maritime expeditions that shaped our understanding of geography in the XVIII century.
