EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1609, when Sir George Somers and a group of English colonists found themselves shipwrecked in Bermuda. The drawing, skillfully created by Richard Caton Woodville in 1903, beautifully captures the essence of this historic event. As we gaze at the image, we are transported to a time of great adventure and peril on the vast Atlantic Ocean. The Sea Adventure ship looms large against the backdrop of a pristine beach, its exterior weathered by the unforgiving sea. Men clad in early English attire can be seen scattered along the seashore, their expressions reflecting both determination and trouble. The scene evokes a sense of awe as we contemplate what these brave souls must have endured during their unexpected journey to Bermuda. It is through their resilience that they managed to survive this maritime disaster and establish themselves as colonists on an unfamiliar island. Woodville's meticulous attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves fully into this historical moment. From the intricate lines depicting each wave crashing onto shore to the subtle shading that brings life to every figure present, his artistry breathes life into this extraordinary tale from centuries past. This print serves as a powerful reminder of human strength and adaptability in even the most challenging circumstances. It invites us to reflect upon our own capacity for courage when faced with adversity while also appreciating how far we have come since those early days of exploration and discovery.
