EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning steel engraving captures the incredible moment when the crew of Lawrence by Ferry encountered the legendary Great Sea Serpent in 1746. Described in Bishop Erik Pontoppidan's Natural History of Norway in 1752, this mythical creature has long been a source of fascination and fear for sailors and explorers alike.
The detailed illustration by James Stewart, reproduced by W.H. Lizars for Robert Hamilton's Amphibious Carnivora as part of Sir William Jardine's esteemed Naturalist's Library: Mammalia, brings to life the dramatic scene of the sea serpent being shot at by the brave crew. The monstrous size and serpentine form of this creature are truly awe-inspiring, sparking wonder and terror in equal measure.
As we gaze upon this historic image, we are transported back to a time when myths and legends mingled with reality on the high seas. The sheer scale and power of the Great Sea Serpent remind us of nature's mysteries and our own humble place within it.
Let this print serve as a reminder of both the wonders and dangers that lie beneath the surface of our world, waiting to be discovered or feared. The legacy of Lawrence by Ferry lives on through this remarkable depiction, forever immortalizing their encounter with one of nature's most enigmatic creatures.
