EDITORS COMMENTS
This copper engraving, titled "PANAMA CITY RAID, 1671. The Battle Between the Spaniards and the pyrats or Buccaniers before the City of Panama" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Depicting the audacious attack on Panama City by Henry Morgan and his buccaneers in January 1671, this print captures the intensity and chaos of battle. The image showcases a clash between two formidable forces - Spanish soldiers defending their colonial stronghold against relentless pirate invaders. The scene is filled with action as cannons roar, swords clash, and muskets fire amidst billowing smoke. It offers a glimpse into an era when piracy was rampant in Latin America's waters. Morgan's successful capture of Panama City marked a pivotal turning point in Caribbean piracy during the late 17th century. This audacious raid not only brought immense wealth to Morgan and his crew but also dealt a severe blow to Spanish dominance in Mesoamerica. As we admire this historic artwork from The Granger Collection, let us reflect on its significance within Panamanian history. Beyond being an emblematic representation of pirate lore, it symbolizes resistance against colonial powers and highlights Latin America's struggle for independence.
