EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Page 3a Chart of Port Praya in the Island of St Jago, Cape Verde Islands" takes us back to the late 18th century. The image showcases a detailed cartographic survey of the coastline and shoreline of Port Praya, one of the Cape Verde Islands. Created by William Hodges, this artwork is part of a collection that includes original sketches, drawings, and maps collected by Admiral Isaac Smith. The composition provides an intriguing view from the anchoring place, offering a glimpse into daily life at Port Praya during that era. The scene features a picturesque seascape with boats dotting the calm waters. A solitary figure stands near a house on the shore, highlighting the isolated nature of this coastal settlement. The subdued color palette adds to its charm as shades of grey dominate the landscape. The elevation profile and mountainous terrain in the background provide context for understanding this geographical location. This piece not only serves as an artistic representation but also holds historical significance as it was created during Captain Cook's second voyage (1772-1775). It offers valuable insights into early exploration and mapping efforts undertaken during that time period. Overall, this print captures both beauty and curiosity through its depiction of Port Praya's coastline while providing viewers with glimpses into maritime history and geographical exploration.
