EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of Henry VIII's embarkment on the magnificent galleon "Henri Grace a Dieu" in Dover. The year is 1520, and this event marks the occasion of a significant trade agreement signed with Francois I, known as the Camp du Drap d'Or. The engraving beautifully replicates Vincenzo Volpe's painting, which can be found at Hampton Court Castle. It showcases the grandeur and splendor of both the ship and its royal passenger. As Henry VIII sets foot on board, one can imagine the anticipation and excitement that filled the air. This image symbolizes more than just an exchange between two nations; it represents a pivotal moment in international relations. England and France come together to forge new alliances through trade, setting aside their differences for mutual benefit. The galleon itself stands tall against a picturesque backdrop of Dover's coastline. Its sails billow majestically in the wind as it prepares to set sail towards new horizons. This scene serves as a reminder of Britain's maritime prowess during this era. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to witness history unfold before our eyes. It reminds us of how art has preserved these important moments for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
