Pre-Columbian America: A Marvelous Account of Virginia and the Fishermen at Work, 16th Century - Admiranda Narratio This enchanting 16th-century engraving, titled "Admiranda Narratio," offers a captivating glimpse into the lives of the indigenous peoples of North America, specifically in the region of Virginia, as depicted by European observers. Created in France, this remarkable work of art is now housed in the Bibliothèque du service historique de la Marine in Paris. The scene unfolds along the shores of North America, where a group of Pre-Columbian fishermen are shown in the act of casting their nets. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the engraving reveal the skill and artistry of the 16th-century European engraver. The fishermen are depicted in various stages of the fishing process, from mending their nets to casting them into the water. The peaceful scene is filled with a sense of harmony between the people and their environment. The fishermen are shown working together, their faces expressing a sense of focus and determination. The natural beauty of the landscape is also on full display, with lush vegetation and a serene body of water reflecting the clear blue sky. This engraving is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Pre-Columbian America and the fascination that it held for European explorers and observers. The image serves as a reminder of the complex and diverse societies that existed in North America prior to European contact, and the important role that fishing played in the daily lives of these communities. The horizontal format of the engraving allows for a panoramic view of the scene, drawing the viewer in and inviting them to explore the details and nuances of this fascinating moment in history.
