EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back to the year 1564, when the New World was still a mystery waiting to be explored. The photograph depicts a significant moment in Florida's history as two large ships, anchored majestically at the mouth of the St. Johns River, mark the beginning of a French Huguenot expedition. The Huguenots, a Protestant religious group facing persecution in France, were led by Jean Ribault, a French explorer and naval officer. Their mission was to establish a settlement in the New World, away from the religious tensions in Europe. The expedition boat, filled with eager explorers, sails upriver, its sails billowing in the wind, as they set out to discover what would later become the Sunshine State. The St. Johns River, with its serene waters and lush vegetation, stretches out before them, teeming with potential and promise. The explorers, armed with their determination and curiosity, were about to encounter a new world filled with diverse cultures, abundant natural resources, and rich wildlife. This event marked the first European attempt to settle Florida and paved the way for further exploration and colonization. The image serves as a testament to the human spirit of adventure and the quest for new beginnings, as well as the enduring allure of the New World.
