EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history as three Saxon sailing vessels navigate the waters of the English Channel off Dover. The intricate details of the ships, with their billowing sails and sturdy hulls, provide a glimpse into medieval maritime transport.
However, it is not just the impressive ships that draw the eye in this image. A seagull swoops down to peck at the head of one of the sailors, its eyes already gouged out by the passing bird. This macabre detail adds a sense of realism and danger to an otherwise serene scene.
The artist has expertly captured both the beauty and brutality of life at sea during this time period. The calm waters belie the harsh realities faced by sailors on these vessels, where danger could come from unexpected sources.
As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported back in time to an era when bravery and skill were required for survival on the open seas. The juxtaposition of peaceful sailing and violent attack serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of life during this historical period.
This stunning print from Mary Evans Picture Library is sure to spark curiosity and intrigue among those who view it, offering a window into a bygone age filled with adventure and peril.
