The Arrival of the English in Virginia - A Historic Encounter
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history, depicting "The Arrival of the English in Virginia" from Theodore de Bry's Admiranda Narratio. Created between 1585 and 1588, this coloured engraving showcases the significant event when English explorers first set foot on American soil. In this scene, we witness a fleet of majestic galleons gracefully navigating towards the coast of Virginia. The ships' sails billow with anticipation as they approach their destination, while a detailed map and plan guide them to their intended port. The vibrant colors bring to life the lush greenery that lines the shore, hinting at both promise and uncertainty. As we delve deeper into this image, we are reminded of the historical significance surrounding these early encounters between Europeans and Native Americans. The presence of indigenous people from tribes such as Secotan and Weopemeoc adds depth to this narrative, highlighting cultural exchange and potential conflict. Roanoke Island looms in the distance—a place that would later become synonymous with mystery as settlers mysteriously vanished without trace. This engraving serves as a visual time capsule capturing not only exploration but also discovery—both for European colonizers seeking new horizons and for native inhabitants witnessing an unprecedented arrival. "The Arrival of the English in Virginia" is more than just a snapshot; it encapsulates an era marked by curiosity, ambition, and cultural intersection—an enduring testament to our shared human history.
