EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases Sir Humphrey Gilbert's historic Expedition to Newfoundland in 1583. The colour lithograph, created by an English School artist in the 20th century, beautifully captures the essence of this significant moment in history. In the image, we see Sir Humphrey Gilbert standing proudly on a ship with his sword at his side. His determined expression reflects his unwavering commitment to exploring new territories and establishing colonies for England. As a renowned explorer and knight, he played a crucial role in expanding our empire beyond its borders. The postcard-like aesthetic adds a nostalgic touch to this depiction of colonialism and exploration during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. It serves as a reminder of how far our nation has come since those early days of maritime expeditions. The presence of Gilbert's sons on board further emphasizes the familial ties that often accompanied these brave explorers on their journeys. This image not only represents adventure but also highlights the sacrifices made by families who supported these ambitious endeavors. With its rich historical context and vivid portrayal, this print transports us back to an era when discovery was paramount. It reminds us of Sir Humphrey Gilbert's pioneering spirit and his contribution to shaping North America's western hemisphere.
