Created by Simon de Passe in 1624, this engraving is an invaluable piece from the General Historie collection. The map itself is a testament to the remarkable exploration conducted by English explorer and admiral, Captain John Smith. It provides a detailed depiction of the New England coast as observed and described by him during his voyages in the early 17th century. Intricate details such as compasses, coat of arms, and other navigational elements adorn this masterpiece. These symbols not only highlight Smith's expertise in navigation but also serve as reminders of the challenges faced by explorers during that era. Accompanying this magnificent cartographic representation is a portrait of Captain John Smith himself. This male figure exudes confidence and determination - qualities befitting an adventurer who played a significant role in mapping uncharted territories. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back to a time when brave individuals like Captain John Smith fearlessly ventured into unknown lands for discovery and expansion.
