EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - the arrival of a despatch boat at Lisbon with news of the Ashantee War in Portugal, 1874. The image, beautifully engraved and showcasing illustrative technique of that era, transports us to Victorian times. The scene depicted is filled with anticipation and urgency. The despatch boat sails into Lisbon's harbor, carrying crucial information about the ongoing conflict. One can almost feel the tension as people gather onshore, eagerly awaiting news from afar. This engraving captures not only an important event but also provides insight into the arts and culture of that time. With its retro-styled vintage appeal, this print serves as a visual time capsule, reminding us of our rich historical heritage. It invites viewers to reflect on how communication has evolved over centuries and appreciate the efforts made during those times to relay vital information promptly. Arkheia's meticulous attention to detail ensures that this print accurately represents an era long gone by. Whether displayed in homes or offices, it sparks curiosity and prompts conversations about past events and their impact on society today.
