EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the 19th century, showcasing a striking portrait of the infamous pirate Henry Every. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of this notorious figure, known for his daring exploits on the high seas. Every's piercing gaze holds our attention as we delve into his mysterious world. His rugged appearance and weathered face tell tales of a life filled with adventure and danger. With an arm casually resting on a gun, he exudes an air of confidence and authority. The composition is enhanced by subtle details that add depth to the image. A parasol in one hand suggests a touch of domesticity amidst his piratical pursuits, while hints of British influence can be seen in his attire. The background evokes images of coastal England or perhaps even Brittany, hinting at possible locations where Every may have roamed. Giancarlo Costa's expertly preserved print allows us to appreciate this historical artwork in all its glory. As we study this engraving, we are reminded that history is not just made up of grand events but also shaped by individuals like Henry Every – malefactors who left their mark on society through acts both heroic and villainous.
