EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling city of Rio de Janeiro in 1599. The image, captured by Olivier de Noort and beautifully engraved by the Netherlandish School, offers a glimpse into the Tiresome Voyage that took place during this era. As we explore this historical scene, we are transported to a world filled with adventure and discovery. The focal point of the print is a fleet of majestic galleons sailing along the coastline, symbolizing the spirit of exploration that defined this period. These ships were instrumental in uncovering new lands and mapping uncharted territories. In fact, they played a significant role in shaping our understanding of Brazil as part of the New World. The intricate details captured within this engraving allow us to appreciate both the grandeur and complexity of these vessels. The map displayed on one of them serves as a reminder that these explorations were not only about discovering new lands but also about expanding knowledge and understanding. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from an Amsterdam private collection, it is impossible not to be captivated by its historical significance. It reminds us that even centuries ago, humans possessed an insatiable curiosity for exploring unknown horizons. This print truly encapsulates the essence of adventure and discovery during this transformative era in history.
