EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the legendary moment when Welsh privateer and buccaneer, Admiral Sir Henry Morgan (1635-1688), led his English forces in the sack of the Spanish city of Panama in 1671. The historic scene unfolds before us, with Morgan at the forefront, his men engaged in fierce combat against the Spanish defenders. The city, once a symbol of Spanish power and wealth, lies in ruins, with smoke rising from the buildings and the sound of clashing swords and gunfire filling the air. Morgan, a notorious figure in the annals of pirate history, had long been a thorn in the side of the Spanish Empire, raiding their ships and settlements in the Caribbean. This daring attack on Panama, one of the most significant Spanish cities in the Americas, cemented his reputation as a hero among the British and a villain among the Spanish. The immense wealth and treasures looted from the city were returned to Jamaica, where Morgan was hailed as a hero and rewarded with a knighthood. The print, produced in the 1670s, offers a glimpse into a bygone era of adventure, danger, and intrigue. The buccaneers, a motley crew of privateers and pirates, are depicted in all their glory, their faces etched with determination and the spoils of war at their feet. The Spaniards, on the other hand, are shown in disarray, their once proud city reduced to rubble and their defenses breached. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the turbulent history of the Caribbean and the indomitable spirit of those who dared to challenge the might of the Spanish Empire.
