EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the illustrious Barbarossa, a renowned figure from history. The illustration is taken from Andre Thevet's Des vrais pourtaits et vies des hommes illustres, published in 1584. In this engraving, we see Barbarossa Hayreddin Pasha, a Turkish Ottoman admiral and Barbary pirate who lived during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Barbarossa's commanding presence is evident as he stands tall in his distinctive attire. His turban adorns his head with elegance while his navy costume exudes authority and power. A striking feature of Barbarossa is his fiery red beard that matches the intensity of his character. Known by various names such as Khair ad-Din, Barbarossa was not only an accomplished military leader but also a privateer who commanded a formidable fleet. He left an indelible mark on history through his naval expeditions and piracy activities across the Mediterranean Sea. This mesmerizing portrait captures both the strength and complexity of this historical figure. It serves as a testament to Barbarossa's significant contributions to maritime warfare during an era when empires clashed for dominance on land and sea. Displayed in this private collection, this engraving allows us to delve into the life of one of history's most intriguing men – a man whose legacy continues to fascinate scholars and enthusiasts alike.
