EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Theodor de Bry depicts the historic moment when French explorers landed on the coast of Florida in 1591. The scene captures the arrival of French Huguenots Jean Ribault and Rene Goulaine de Laudonniere, as they embarked on a journey of exploration in the New World.
The intricate details in this print showcase the determination and curiosity of these early explorers, as they navigated unknown waters and encountered indigenous tribes along their path. The presence of native Indians adds a layer of complexity to this narrative, highlighting the cultural exchange that took place during this period of colonialism.
Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues's skilled hand brings to life the excitement and challenges faced by these adventurers, as they set foot on foreign shores with hopes of discovery and conquest. The ships depicted in the background serve as symbols of transportation and progress, marking a new chapter in European expansion into North America.
As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the courage and ambition that drove these men to explore uncharted territories, leaving behind a legacy that continues to shape our understanding of early American history.
