EDITORS COMMENTS
The Armada in sight, Plymouth Hoe, 1880 (1911) captures the legendary moment when Sir Francis Drake engaged in a game of bowls on the picturesque shores of Plymouth Hoe. This print by John Seymour Lucas brings to life the apocryphal tale that has become synonymous with Drake's defiance against the mighty Spanish Armada. In this vibrant scene, we see a group of men engrossed in their leisurely pursuit, surrounded by the vast expanse of the sea. The artist skillfully portrays their relaxed and carefree demeanor as they await the changing tide before setting sail into battle. The coastal landscape serves as a stunning backdrop for this historic event, evoking a sense of patriotism and adventure. Lucas' attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the colorful clothing worn by these men to their focused expressions and body language. Through his artistry, he transports us back to 1588, allowing us to witness firsthand this pivotal moment in English history. This remarkable painting now resides at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, where it continues to captivate audiences with its vivid portrayal of bravery and determination. As we gaze upon this colorized print from Bibbys Annual 1911, let us be reminded of Sir Francis Drake's indomitable spirit and his crucial role in defending England against one of history's most formidable naval forces.
