EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1702, as we witness the relentless search for Spanish galleons shipwrecked in Vigo Bay. The image is a page extracted from "Emporio Picturesco" an intriguing publication dating back to 1871 by an unknown artist of the 19th century. The scene depicted showcases a vast expanse of water, with a sense of mystery and adventure lingering in the air. A boat sails through the bay, its purpose clear: to uncover remnants of these lost vessels that once carried treasures and tales from Spain's rich maritime history. As we delve into this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that this search holds great significance. The shipwrecks symbolize both triumphs and tragedies; they are testaments to human resilience and exploration while also serving as reminders of lives lost at sea. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully captured this momentous endeavor, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the quest for knowledge and discovery. Through his lens, we can almost feel the excitement pulsating through those involved in unearthing fragments of Spain's past. This print serves as a window into history—a reminder that beneath our modern world lies layers upon layers of stories waiting to be unveiled. It invites contemplation on how our collective past shapes our present reality and inspires us to continue exploring untold narratives buried within time's depths.
