Antique Print of the Battle in 1702 of Vigo Bay or Rande, Galicia, Spain
About the Item
Antique print titled 'An Exact Draught of the Bay and Harbour of Vigo'. The Battle of Vigo Bay was an engagement that saw a combined Dutch/English naval force successfully capture one of Spain’s famous treasure fleets, protected by an allied escort of French ships. The battle took place off the northwestern coast of Spain in 1702 as part of the larger War of Spanish Succession. Though much of the treasure had been unloaded by the time the victory was assured, the success would ultimately lead Portugal to abandon Spain and join Britain and the Dutch Republic in the Grand Alliance.
Oriented with north to the left, the image shows the Allied fleet in its approaches to the city and subsequent engagement with numerous French ships of the line, several of which are individually labeled. A key in the lower left identifies the various components of the engagement that are labeled within the view, including the amphibious invasion, destruction of Spanish galleons, and the march to Castle Rante.
Originates from 'Tindal's Continuation of Mr. Rapin's History'. Nicolas Tindal translated Paul de Rapin's History of England into English shortly after the French edition's release (1724-1727), and would later add volumes covering the reign of James VI and I (1566-1625) to George I (1660-1727) which represent the "continuation." These plans depict the fortifications of Spanish towns that were the sites of conflict during the War of the Spanish Succession. Each includes an ornate cartouche containing a key to important locations. Engraved by J. Basire.
