EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1508, during a new expedition to India. The image is derived from Livro das Armadas, a remarkable pen and ink manuscript created by the Portuguese School in the 16th century. Preserved at Academia das Ciencias de Lisboa in Lisbon, Portugal, this historical artwork showcases an armada of ships embarking on a voyage of discovery. The fleet depicted here consists of majestic galleons sailing across uncharted waters. Each vessel exudes strength and determination as it braves the vast ocean on its quest for exploration and maritime conquest. This visual narrative captures the spirit of adventure that characterized this era of colonisation. The meticulous attention to detail evident in this piece highlights not only the artistic skill but also serves as a valuable historical record. It offers us insight into how these expeditions were organized and executed during that period. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of humanity's great endeavors. It reminds us of our innate curiosity and desire to explore unknown territories, pushing boundaries beyond what was previously thought possible.
