EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in maritime history - Dutch merchant ships leaving Portsmouth on June 2,1833. The image, originally an etching by Robert Havell after John Christian Schetky, showcases the significance of this event. In 1832, England imposed an embargo on twelve Dutch ships as a means to exert pressure on William of Orange to support Leopold's election as the first King of the Belgians. This move came after Belgium gained independence from the Netherlands. However, this picture is part of a series of three that depicts these very ships departing England following the lifting of the embargo. The composition beautifully portrays a fleet of majestic sailing vessels under full sail, ready to embark on their journey across the sea. The sight is both awe-inspiring and symbolic; it represents not only trade and commerce but also diplomacy and political maneuvering between nations. As we delve into this historical moment frozen in time, we are reminded of how art can capture significant events and transport us back to pivotal moments in our past. This particular photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience amidst complex geopolitical circumstances. With its rich historical context and stunning visual appeal, this print offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in a fascinating chapter from our shared heritage.
