EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the Danish settlement of Godthaab in Greenland. The image, created by an English School artist, offers a glimpse into this remote and fascinating corner of the world. Godthaab, nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Greenland, is depicted with meticulous detail and precision. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of this European outpost in Scandinavia - a testament to human resilience and exploration. The scene transports us to a time when Denmark's influence extended far beyond its mainland borders. With its charming wooden houses dotting the landscape, Godthaab exudes a sense of tranquility and isolation that only such remote settlements can provide. As we delve deeper into this historical artwork, it becomes evident that every stroke tells a story. This print was originally featured in Edwin Hopper's renowned publication "The World its Cities and Peoples" published around 1890. It served as an invaluable source for those seeking knowledge about different cultures across the globe. Today, thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we are able to appreciate this snapshot from history. It serves as a reminder of our ancestors' thirst for discovery and their ability to adapt even in seemingly inhospitable environments.
