EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the historical event known as "Expvgnatio civitatiss Avgvstini America sitae". The engraving, created by Johann Theodor de Bry in 1625, vividly depicts Sir Francis Drake's audacious attack on Saint Augustine that took place on May 28 and 29,1586. The image captures the intensity of this pivotal moment in history, showcasing the chaos and destruction caused by Drake's assault. With meticulous detail, de Bry brings to life the battle scene with its swirling smoke, crumbling fortifications, and brave defenders fighting valiantly against their formidable adversary. Based on a view-plan by Baptista Boazio, this engraving offers a unique perspective of the city during this tumultuous time. It serves as both a visual record and an artistic interpretation of one of America's earliest conflicts. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the bravery and resilience displayed by those who defended Saint Augustine against Drake's forces. This image is not only a testament to historical events but also a reminder of our shared human experiences throughout time.
