EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "First sight of the Pillars of Hercules" takes us back in time to the early 15th century when exploration and trade were flourishing. The illustration, originally featured in Hutchinson's History of the Nations around 1910-1915, depicts a significant moment as sailors aboard a Spanish vessel catch their first glimpse of the iconic Rock of Gibraltar. The image transports us to an era when Phoenician traders had already established colonies and trading stations across the Mediterranean. As they ventured further west along the coasts of Spain and Africa, they encountered this awe-inspiring natural landmark for the very first time. The artist, Allan Stewart (1865-1951), skillfully captures the excitement and anticipation on board as sailors gather on deck to witness this remarkable sight. The ship gracefully sails through calm waters while ropes sway gently in sync with its movement. With meticulous detail, Stewart portrays every element – from mast to sail – creating a vivid portrayal that brings history alive. This lithograph offers viewers a window into an age defined by exploration and discovery. It reminds us of humanity's insatiable curiosity and our relentless pursuit for new horizons. Whether you are fascinated by maritime history or simply captivated by beautiful artistry, this print is sure to transport you back in time and ignite your imagination.
