EDITORS COMMENTS
This intricately detailed engraving is a captivating glimpse into the past, depicting a section of Theodor de Bry's seminal work, "Admiranda Narratio de Rebus in Virginia Americana," published between 1590 and 1634. The image, titled "Arrival of the English in Virginia in 1607," is a significant historical document, as it is one of the earliest European depictions of the Virginia coastline. Theodor de Bry, a renowned Flemish engraver, spent most of his career in France, where he produced a vast body of work, including this remarkable series of maps and illustrations. This particular detail showcases the arrival of English ships at the Virginia seaboard, marking the beginning of English colonization in America. The image is rich in detail, with several boats and ships anchored near the shore, their sails billowing in the wind. The coastline is dotted with trees and rocky outcroppings, and in the distance, one can make out the outlines of settlements. The meticulous rendering of the ships and their rigging, as well as the intricate depiction of the coastline, attest to de Bry's exceptional skill as an engraver. This engraving is an essential historical artifact, providing valuable insight into the early European exploration and colonization of the Americas. It is a testament to the enduring allure of the New World and the human desire to discover and conquer new lands. This image is part of the extensive collection of the Bibliothèque de l'Institut de France, Paris, which houses an impressive array of historical documents and works of art.
