EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Pictish woman, as depicted in the renowned "Admiranda Narratio" engraved by Theodore de Bry. Created between 1585-88, this colored engraving was skillfully reproduced by John White, capturing the essence of early Scottish culture and history. The image portrays a fierce female warrior adorned with tribal markings and tattoos that symbolize her strength and bravery. Holding a spear firmly in her hand, she exudes an air of power and determination. Her nudity challenges societal norms, emphasizing her connection to nature and highlighting the raw beauty of her existence. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness the resilience of these ancient people. The intricate details etched into every line tell stories untold; tales of battles fought, traditions upheld, and a proud heritage preserved. This engraving is part of the Grands Voyages series which chronicles an expedition to Virginia in 1585. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and exploration during that era. Through Thomas Hariot's accompanying text, we gain insight into the encounters made on this journey. Intriguingly mysterious yet undeniably captivating, this print invites us to delve deeper into our shared past while celebrating the indomitable spirit that resides within each one of us.
