This print showcases the "Memorials of the Armadas of Portugal under King Manuel I" offering a glimpse into the rich maritime history of 15th-century Portugal. The image depicts a miniature from a manuscript dating back to 1497, now housed in Lisbon's National Museum of Ancient Art. In this intricate representation, we are transported to an era when caravels dominated the Portuguese fleet. These majestic ships were instrumental in facilitating exploration and trade expeditions during that time. As we admire this artwork, we can almost hear the creaking wood and feel the salty breeze as these vessels set sail on their daring journeys. The attention to detail is remarkable, showcasing the craftsmanship of the anonymous Portuguese School artist who created this masterpiece centuries ago.
