EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in history as Sebastian Cabot passionately explains his groundbreaking discoveries to the esteemed King Henry VII. The 19th-century artwork beautifully captures the intensity of their conversation, with Cabot gesturing animatedly and the king leaning forward attentively. Sebastian Cabot, an intrepid explorer and navigator, is renowned for his significant contributions to England's maritime exploration during the Age of Discovery. As he recounts tales of uncharted territories and exotic lands, one can almost feel the excitement emanating from him. His words carry weight and promise endless possibilities for trade routes and new resources that could shape England's future. King Henry VII listens intently, fully aware of the potential these discoveries hold for expanding his kingdom's influence across distant shores. With a keen eye on progress and expansion, he recognizes Cabot's invaluable role in securing England's place among other European powers vying for global dominance. This historical scene serves as a testament to human curiosity and ambition; it encapsulates an era when brave individuals like Sebastian Cabot risked everything in pursuit of knowledge beyond known horizons. Through this engraving by English School artists commissioned by David Hume centuries later, we are reminded of our collective thirst for discovery that has shaped our world throughout time. As we gaze upon this print today, we cannot help but be inspired by these two figures who dared to dream big and push boundaries – forever leaving their mark on history.
