A vintage wood engraving depicting the alleged sighting of a sea serpent from the H.M.S. Daedalus, capturing a moment of maritime mystery and adventure.

This striking wood engraving depicts the purported sighting of a great sea serpent from the H.M.S. Daedalus, as published in 'The Sea: Its Stirring Story of Adventure, Peril, and Heroism' by Cassell & Co. The image captures the moment the serpent was allegedly first observed, presenting a dramatic encounter between naval exploration and the mysteries of the deep. The Daedalus, a Royal Navy frigate, is rendered with meticulous detail, its sails billowing as it navigates the choppy waters. In the foreground, the serpentine form rises from the waves, its dark, smooth body contrasting with the textured sea. The monochromatic palette enhances the historical feel, lending an air of authenticity to the fantastical subject matter. This print offers a glimpse into the 19th-century fascination with sea monsters and the uncharted territories of the ocean. It serves as a captivating conversation piece, ideal for adding a touch of maritime history and intrigue to any room. The detailed linework and dramatic composition make it a compelling addition to a study, living room, or hallway, appealing to those with an interest in naval history, cryptozoology, or vintage illustration.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
