The Last of the Invincible Armada
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph by John Hassall, capturing a pivotal moment in history. The print showcases Queen Elizabeth I's triumph over the Spanish Armada during the tempestuous storm that sealed their fate. In this dramatic scene, we witness the remnants of the once mighty Spanish fleet being tossed and battered by ferocious waves. The dark clouds loom overhead, mirroring the uncertainty and impending doom faced by these ill-fated ships. Amidst this chaos, Queen Elizabeth's ship stands tall as a symbol of resilience and victory. Hassall's attention to detail brings this historical event to life; every crashing wave and tattered sail evokes a sense of urgency and desperation. It serves as a reminder of England's defiance against overwhelming odds, showcasing their determination to protect their shores from foreign invasion. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for "Good Queen Bess" published in 1906. Its inclusion in private collections has preserved its beauty throughout time. As viewers gaze upon this print, they are transported back to an era when Europe stood divided but united against Spain's dominance. "The Last of the Invincible Armada" remains an enduring testament to both England's triumph over adversity and Hassall's artistic prowess. It serves as a poignant reminder that even in our darkest hours, courage can prevail against all odds.
