EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View Anchoring Place Tenian Centurion Watered" takes us back in time to the 18th century, immersing us in a moment of exploration and adventure. The image is an etching from George Anson's renowned book "A Voyage round the World" which chronicles his expedition to the South Seas. The scene depicted showcases the anchoring place at Tenian, where Anson's ship, the Centurion, stopped to replenish its water supply. The intricate details captured by Joh. Sebastian Muller through copperplate etching bring this historical moment to life. As we gaze upon this fold-out plate inserted between pages 314 and 315 of Anson's publication, we are transported to a world filled with curiosity and discovery. Commander-in-Chief George Anson led a squadron of His Majesty's ships on this daring journey that spanned several years (MDCCXL-I-III-IV). This print serves as a testament to their courage and determination as they navigated uncharted waters. Published under Lord George Anson's direction, this visual masterpiece combines Richard Walter's materials with Muller's artistic skill. It captures not only the beauty of Tenian but also provides valuable insights into naval expeditions during that era. As we admire this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, let it remind us of humanity's relentless pursuit for knowledge and our innate desire to explore new horizons.
