EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning engraving from 1748 depicts a chart of the channel in the Philippine Islands through which the Manila Galeon passes, along with the adjacent islands. Created by Richard William Seale, this intricate map showcases the detailed cartography and navigational aids used during that time period. The border of the map is graduated for latitude, with rhumb lines indicating direction for sailors. The main focus is on Luzon, one of the largest islands in the Philippines. In June 1743, Admiral Anson made history by capturing the Acapulco treasure galleon as it sailed into Manila while waiting at Capo de Espiritu Santo. This historical piece provides a glimpse into early 18th-century navigation and exploration in Asia. The black-and-white engraving captures not only geographical information but also reflects the artistry and skill of its creator. Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, this print serves as a reminder of a bygone era when seafaring was both treacherous and adventurous. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance in mapping out uncharted territories and navigating through unknown waters.
