EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history, capturing the grandeur and excitement surrounding the arrival of Catherine of Braganza to London. The image depicts "The ships of the Duke of York meeting the ships of the Royal Navy" as they bring Catherine, accompanied by a distinguished escort, through the Channel towards her new home. Dating back to 1662, this old master print by Dirk Stoop is part of a series documenting Catherine's journey from Portugal to England, where she would marry Charles II. The attention to detail is remarkable, with numbers in the margin referring to specific ships involved in this historic performance. As we gaze upon this engraving, we can almost feel ourselves transported back in time. The artist skillfully captures both the majesty of these impressive vessels and their significance within this momentous occasion. It serves as a testament not only to Stoop's talent but also as an important historical record for future generations. Displayed proudly at Kupferstich Kabinett or any art enthusiast's collection space, this print reminds us of how art has always played a crucial role in preserving our past and allowing us glimpses into moments long gone. Let it serve as a reminder that even centuries later, stories like Catherine's continue to captivate our imagination and inspire awe for those who came before us.
