EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking poster, created by the Empire Marketing Board between 1927 and 1933, celebrates the brave explorers who played a pivotal role in expanding the British Empire during the late 15th to early 18th centuries. The poster features portraits of ten notable explorers, including John Cabot, Henry Hudson, Francis Drake, Walter Raleigh, Richard Dampier, William Penn, George Anson, Earl of Chatham, James Wolfe, and Robert Clive. The explorers are depicted against a backdrop of the African continent, symbolizing the far-reaching impact of their discoveries. Each explorer is shown in a heroic pose, with a caption highlighting their achievements. John Cabot, for instance, is credited with discovering Newfoundland, while Henry Hudson is known for exploring the Hudson River. Francis Drake circumnavigated the globe, and Walter Raleigh is famous for his voyages to the New World and his promotion of tobacco cultivation. The poster's design is reminiscent of the Art Deco style popular during the 1920s and 1930s, with bold lines, geometric shapes, and a vibrant color palette. The poster was likely used for promotional purposes, such as in schools, museums, or public buildings, to educate and inspire the British public about the rich history of exploration and the vast reach of the British Empire. The explorers depicted in this poster played a significant role in shaping the world as we know it today, opening up new trade routes, discovering new lands, and spreading British influence across the globe. Their stories continue to captivate and inspire generations, and this poster serves as a testament to their enduring legacy.
