EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of Naval, Drake and Armada Memorials in Plymouth, Devon, painted by the talented landscape artist Alfred Robert Quinton. The scene depicts a serene setting with lush green grass, a peaceful bench to sit and reflect, and three majestic memorials standing tall - each representing a significant piece of history.
The obelisk stands as a symbol of naval pride, while the statue pays homage to Sir Francis Drake's legendary seafaring adventures. The Armada Memorial serves as a reminder of England's victory over the Spanish Armada in 1588. These monuments are not just structures; they embody centuries of maritime heritage and heroism.
Quinton's artwork beautifully captures the essence of this historical site in his original watercolour painting from the 1920s. The postcard reproduction allows viewers to transport themselves back in time to an era when these memorials were freshly built and held great significance for those who passed by.
As you gaze upon this image, let yourself be transported to a time when bravery on the high seas was celebrated and honored through grand monuments like these. It is truly a testament to England's rich naval history and serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who came before us.
