The Tercentenary of the Defeat of the Spanish Armada - A Historic Commemoration
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, captures a momentous event in naval history - The Tercentenary of the Defeat of the Spanish Armada. The print showcases a scene from July 1888 when this significant victory was celebrated and immortalized. The image transports us to a time long ago, where we witness an array of majestic ships sailing near the Isle of Wight. These vessels represent both English and Spanish fleets engaged in fierce combat during the historic naval battles that took place in 1588. Amidst billowing sails and crashing waves, one can almost feel the intensity and determination emanating from these maritime clashes. Intricate tapestries adorn an old House of Lords backdrop, paying homage to this monumental occasion. Portraits grace its walls, depicting key figures such as Sir Walter Raleigh - a renowned writer, poet, military strategist hailing from England's shores. This artwork not only commemorates bravery on sea but also symbolizes unity among European nations. German influences are evident through references to Germany's navy and army within this historical context. It serves as a reminder that despite past conflicts between nations like Spain and England or Germany and other European powers; today they stand united under common goals within institutions like the European Union (EU). As we gaze upon this remarkable print captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, it reminds us how
