EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a portrait of Jean Francois de Galaup, Comte de La Perouse. A renowned French navigator, astronomer, and explorer of the 18th century, La Perouse embarked on an extraordinary four-year expedition from 1785 to 1788. His journey led him through the vast Pacific Ocean, where he explored islands, China, Japan, Hawaii, Australia, and the Western Coast of North America. Tragically though, this brave captain's fate remains shrouded in mystery. The engraving hints at his ultimate demise as it mentions that La Perouse and his entire expedition were lost in the Pacific in 1788 - presumably after being shipwrecked. This somber detail adds a layer of intrigue to an already remarkable story. The artist behind this evocative print is Thomas Woolnoth. Through his skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail captured here in monochrome form with delicate shading techniques; he immortalizes La Perouse's image for generations to come. As we gaze upon this historical artifact today with its intricate uniform adorned with epaulettes symbolizing rank and authority; we are reminded of the courage and determination exhibited by explorers like La Perouse who ventured into uncharted territories in pursuit of knowledge about our world.
