EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Brevis narratio eorum quae in Florida Americae Provincia Gallis acciderunt, secunda in allam Navigatione," is a captivating image from the second part of Theodore de Bry's series "Grand Voyages," published in Frankfurt in 1591. The image depicts a night attack on a Native American village in Florida, as recorded by Jacques Le Moyne during the French expedition led by Jean Ribault and René Goulaine de Laudonnière in 1564. Theodore de Bry, a renowned engraver and publisher, collected and published the illustrations and descriptions of the natives of Florida from Le Moyne's account of the expedition. This engraving is from the folio 31 of the series and provides a vivid depiction of the native people and their way of life. The scene shows a group of Native Americans under attack, with some defending their village and others fleeing in panic. The village is shown with thatched huts and palm trees, providing a glimpse into their living conditions. The attackers, possibly Spanish or English explorers, are shown with weapons and armor, ready to engage in battle. This engraving is an important historical record of the early exploration of Florida by Europeans and provides valuable insights into the culture and lifestyle of the Native American tribes of the region during the late 16th century. The image is a testament to the rich history of exploration and discovery during the Early Modern Era and is a valuable addition to any collection of historical prints or maps.
