EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical engraving titled "Augustine from Drakes West Indian Voyage 1585 - 86". Created by the talented artist Baptista Boazio in 1589, this hand-coloured masterpiece takes us back to an era of exploration and adventure. The image depicts the renowned English explorer Francis Drake's expedition to the West Indies, specifically St. Augustine in Florida. The intricate details of this engraving transport us to a time when British fleets sailed across uncharted waters, mapping new territories and encountering exotic wildlife along the way. The ships gracefully glide through the crystal-clear sea, while flying fish leap out of the water with astonishing agility. As we delve into this historic artwork, we are reminded of Drake's significant contributions as a navigator and his role in shaping world history. His voyage not only expanded England's influence but also paved the way for future explorations that would forever change our understanding of geography. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable piece serves as both an artistic treasure and a testament to human curiosity and ambition. It invites us to marvel at past achievements while igniting our own sense of wonder about what lies beyond known horizons. Intriguingly capturing moments frozen in time, Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate these extraordinary works from various periods throughout history without commercial constraints or limitations on their use.
