Will Adams The Man Who Unlocked Japan (Original)

(Ref: BaraldiAdam)

Artist: Severino Baraldi
Medium: Gouache on Board
Size: 6" x 7" (15cm x 18cm)
Description: Will Adams was a Jacobean who discovered Japan when it was still unknown to the rest of the world. In the winter of 1611, a letter was received by the merchants of the East India Company. The fact that it came from Japan, a forbidden and unknown land, was a cause of wonder, but even more remarkable was that the writer was an Englishman by the name of William Adams. Adams had sailed to the East in 1598, but most of his company had died by the time their ship was washed up unexpectedly in Japan. He fell in love with the barbaric splendour of the country and decided to settle. An original painting in pen and ink and gouache depicting Will Adams' landing.

Price: £150.00 ($225.00) (€165,00)
