EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Arrival in Flanders" depicts a significant moment from the history of the peregrinations of the Syon Nuns. Compiled in Lisbon during the early 17th century, this vellum artwork showcases the Portuguese School's exceptional craftsmanship. In this scene, we witness an extraordinary event as King Philip II of Spain welcomes the Syon Nuns upon their arrival in Flanders. The nuns had embarked on a remarkable journey and were graciously received by King Philip II himself. As a gesture of his appreciation, he bestowed upon them a convent named Bethany in Zeeland. The image portrays a majestic ship approaching the Flemish coast, with its sails billowing gracefully against the wind. A group of female figures clad in religious attire can be seen disembarking onto land, guided by members of royalty and surrounded by an air of anticipation. This manuscript illustration offers us glimpses into both maritime and royal life during this period. It beautifully captures not only historical events but also highlights elements such as coastal landscapes and intricate coat-of-arms designs associated with Burgundian heritage. Preserved under His Grace The Duke of Norfolk at Arundel Castle, this rare piece serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and historical significance. Its portrayal evokes curiosity about these brave nuns' voyage and their subsequent contributions to religious life in Flanders.
