EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a significant moment in history - the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. The image captures the Spanish Fleete weighing anchor from the River Tagus on May 20th, 1588. It is a late Elizabethan engraving that beautifully portrays this pivotal event. The focal point of this composition is an English playing card, specifically the eight of hearts, which depicts the triumph over the Spanish Armada. This card serves as a symbolic representation of England's victory and highlights its significance during that time. The intricate details and craftsmanship evident in this Renaissance-era artwork make it truly remarkable. The sailing ships gracefully navigating through Tagus River are meticulously illustrated, showcasing both their grandeur and power. As we delve into history through this image, we witness how England successfully defended itself against Spain's formidable naval force. This particular print belongs to Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection and offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only historical events but also artistry from centuries past.
