EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "The Pelican, afterwards Golden Hind" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in a historical moment of heroism and adventure. The image showcases a magnificent ship sailing through rough waters with grace and determination. It is an illustration from the book "Heroes of the United Service" by L Valentine, published around 1890. The vessel depicted here was originally named "The Pelican" but later became famously known as "Golden Hind". This maritime masterpiece transports us to an era when ships were not only means of transport but symbols of exploration and bravery. As we gaze at this print, we can almost hear the creaking wood, feel the salty breeze on our faces, and imagine ourselves aboard this majestic vessel. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this engraving. From the intricate rigging to the billowing sails against stormy skies, it captures both the beauty and power of these seafaring vessels. The presence of pelicans soaring above adds a touch of wildlife amidst man's conquests over nature. This artwork serves as a reminder that history is filled with tales of daring individuals who embarked on perilous journeys across vast oceans. It invites us to appreciate their courage while also acknowledging their impact on shaping our world today.
