EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Captain James Cook, a renowned explorer of the 18th century. Taken from a series of cigarette cards entitled "Celebrities of British History" produced by Carreas Ltd in 1935, this image captures the essence of adventure and exploration that defined Cook's life. The portrait is based on a painting by John Webber, R. A. , displayed at the National Portrait Gallery. In this striking portrayal, Captain James Cook exudes confidence and determination. His piercing gaze reflects his unwavering spirit as he embarks on daring voyages across uncharted territories. Clad in his captain's uniform, he stands as an emblematic figure representing the age of discovery. The vibrant colors bring to life the rich history surrounding this legendary navigator. This photograph transports us back to the thirties, offering a glimpse into both the 18th and 20th centuries when Cook's legacy continued to inspire generations. As we admire this remarkable print from The Print Collector collection, it serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit for knowledge and new horizons. Captain James Cook remains an enduring symbol of courage and curiosity that transcends time.
