EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut takes us back to a significant moment in history - the year 1852, when Commander Matthew Perry led a squadron of US Navy ships on a groundbreaking voyage to Japan. The print showcases the impressive fleet lined up from left to right: USS Susquehannah, Saratoga, St Mary's, Plymouth, Perry in his rowboat, Mississippi, and Princeton. As we delve into this vintage illustration, we are transported to an era of maritime exploration and diplomacy. These vessels were not merely warships; they symbolized America's determination to forge new trade routes and establish diplomatic relations with Asia. The steam-powered ships represented cutting-edge technology at the time. The image captures the vastness of the Pacific Ocean as these historic ships sail towards Japan. It reminds us of the courage and ambition that fueled their journey across uncharted waters. This print serves as a visual testament to American naval power during this period. Commander Perry played a pivotal role in opening Japan for international trade through negotiations known as "the Treaty of Kanagawa". This artwork encapsulates that momentous occasion when East met West and forever changed global dynamics. With its rich historical context and exquisite artistry, this woodcut offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in the fascinating world of 19th-century naval expeditions while honoring Commander Matthew Perry's legacy.
