EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Departure from Lisbon for Brazil, the East Indies and America" takes us back in time to the 16th century. The illustration, created by Theodore de Bry, showcases a bustling harbor scene in Lisbon, Portugal. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported to an era of great exploration and adventure. The image depicts a fleet of majestic galleons being loaded with cargo as they prepare to embark on their daring voyages. The ships stand tall against the backdrop of the medieval port, their sails billowing in anticipation of the open sea. This scene captures the excitement and ambition that fueled these early maritime expeditions. One cannot help but wonder about the stories hidden within each ship's hull – tales of brave sailors setting off into uncharted territories in search of new lands and riches. Perhaps among them is Hans Staden, whose captivity story is also depicted here. As we admire this engraving from "Americae Tertia Pars" part three of Grands Voyages series, our imagination runs wild with visions of distant shores waiting to be discovered. It serves as a reminder that throughout history, humans have always been driven by curiosity and a thirst for knowledge. This remarkable piece invites us to reflect on our own journeys - both literal and metaphorical - reminding us that every departure holds within it endless possibilities and untold adventures.
