EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the square of La Vega on a serene winter evening. The scene is filled with the lively activities of the crew, who have found solace in various pastimes. As we observe closely, we see members engrossed in reading books, their faces illuminated by the soft glow of lamplight. Amidst the literary pursuits, intense chess and backgammon games unfold under the watchful eyes of fellow sailors. The competitive spirit fills the air as strategic moves are made and victories celebrated. It is evident that these games provide both entertainment and camaraderie for those aboard. Adding to the convivial atmosphere is a group engaged in liqueur tasting. Glasses clink together as they savor different flavors and share stories from their travels. This moment captures a sense of relaxation and indulgence amidst their arduous journey. This enchanting engraving was created for Nils Adolf Erik Baron Nordenskjold's "Voyage de la Vega around Asia and Europe" published in 1882 Paris edition of Tour du monde magazine. The Swedish School artist beautifully depicts this snapshot into life at sea during an era when exploration was at its peak. Through this image, we can almost feel ourselves immersed in their world - witnessing not only their daily routines but also glimpses into moments of leisure that bring joy to their challenging voyage across continents.
