EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures the mysterious and legendary Sea Serpent of Greenland, as sighted by Hans Egede in 1734. The historical significance of this sighting cannot be understated, as it has become a part of Greenlandic folklore and maritime history.
In the image, we see the vast expanse of the coast of Greenland, with the sea serpent rising majestically from the depths, spouting water into the air. The creature's long and sinuous body is both awe-inspiring and terrifying, a reminder of nature's power and mystery.
Hans Egede's encounter with this mythical beast has been passed down through generations, becoming a part of local legend and lore. The sea serpent symbolizes the unknown dangers that lurk beneath the surface of our world, reminding us to respect and marvel at nature's wonders.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era when explorers like Egede braved uncharted waters in search of adventure and discovery. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and courage in the face of the unknown.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully captured this momentous event in history, allowing us to glimpse into a world where myth and reality collide on the shores of Greenland.
