EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving, created in 1588, showcases a pivotal moment in history - the taking of St. Augustine, Florida by the renowned explorer Sir Francis Drake on June 7th, 1586. This remarkable artwork is not only an exquisite example of Renaissance craftsmanship but also holds the distinction of being the earliest engraved view of a U. S. city. The scene depicted in this print transports us back to that fateful day when Drake's ship anchored off the coast of St. Augustine, marking his audacious attempt to seize control from Spanish hands. The meticulously detailed engraving captures both the grandeur and chaos of this maritime endeavor as Drake's galleon dominates the foreground while smaller vessels navigate through choppy waters. Beyond its artistic merit, this image serves as a historical document providing valuable insights into colonial settlement during the Age of Discovery. It offers viewers a glimpse into what life was like for early settlers along America's southeastern coast and highlights their struggles against Spanish dominance. As we study this engraving further, we can discern intricate details such as a map or plan indicating strategic positions and potential routes for attack or defense. This visual aid helps us understand how privateers like Sir Francis Drake operated during this era - utilizing careful planning and cunning tactics to secure victory. In essence, "The Taking of St. Augustine" encapsulates both artistry and historical significance within its frame - offering us an invaluable window into Latin America's New World exploration and United States' early beginnings as colonies took root
