EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing illustration of "Drakes Drum" from Henry Newbolt's renowned collection, "Drakes Drum and Other Songs of the Sea". Created by Arthur David McCormick, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of an Elizabethan naval scene. The image takes us back to a time when Sir Francis Drake's brave crew sailed across treacherous waters. The watchman stands tall on deck, donning his armor and helmet, ever vigilant in his duty to protect their sailing ship. As he scans the horizon for any signs of danger, a drummer beats rhythmically on Drakes Drum, filling the air with anticipation. The uniformed crew members are scattered across the deck, readying themselves for whatever challenges lie ahead. Their dedication to serving in both navy and army is evident as they stand united against any threat that may arise. Intricately detailed and richly colored, this illustration transports us into a world where bravery and adventure intertwine. It reminds us of the indomitable spirit that drove these men to conquer uncharted territories in service to their country. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from our private collection, we are reminded of Sir Francis Drake's legacy - a symbol of courage and determination that continues to inspire generations.
