EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed and intricate map of Great Britain, depicting various significant events and symbols from history. The title on the object reveals that it represents the places where intense battles took place between the English and Spanish fleets, as well as the locations where several Spanish ships were destroyed during their return to Spain. The map itself is adorned with numerous coats of arms, including those of Queen Elizabeth I, Holland, and Zeeland. It also features an indication of the route taken by the Spanish Fleet in 1588. Enclosed within a cartouche at the top is a magnificent Corona Navalis (ships crown), while Neptunus' head adorns its bottom. On one side stands Britannia herself, wielding thunder and lightning that symbolically touch upon Spain's Castile and Leon regions, representing Envy and Superstition. On her other side stands True Faith, holding a torch and a large Bible as her attributes while directing lightning towards Ignorance, Hypocrisy, and Papacy. Additionally featured are two coins or medallions; one depicts the Spanish Fleet battling through stormy seas while on its reverse side shows a church under attack in rough waters - symbolizing Protestantism being targeted. The other coin portrays Pope along with cardinals, bishops, emperor among others who are blindfolded standing on pins or nails - representing their deceitful actions. This remarkable print provides insight into both historical events surrounding the Spanish Armada as well as carpets created for Charles Howard's book about it. It captures personifications of countries/nations/states alongside representations of virtues such as True Religion combating False Religion whilst highlighting vices like Ignorance and Hypocrisy.
