EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Henry the Navigator, a renowned Portuguese explorer and key figure in the Age of Discovery. In this Azulejo artwork from Sintra, Portugal, Henry is depicted sitting by the sea, his gaze fixed on the vast expanse before him. The intricate details of this piece showcase the skill and artistry of the Portuguese School. Henry the Navigator was born in 1394 and played a pivotal role in expanding Portugal's maritime exploration during the 15th century. His insatiable curiosity for new lands and desire to find alternative trade routes led to significant advancements in navigation techniques and shipbuilding. In this portrait, we see Henry as a contemplative figure, perhaps pondering future expeditions or reflecting on past accomplishments. The serene backdrop of Lisbon's surroundings adds depth to his character and emphasizes his connection with the sea. Leonard de Selva expertly captured this timeless image that showcases both historical significance and artistic beauty. As we admire this print, we are transported back in time to an era when brave explorers like Henry pushed boundaries and expanded our understanding of our world.
