Voir la traduction automatique
A bird's-eye view of Cartagena after Sir Francis Drake's capture of the Spanish city during his West Indies raid of 1585-1586. Drake's fleet fills the harbor and the opposing armies are shown. An inset image depicts a large iguana or alligator. De Bry's engraving is based on Baptista Boazio's original drawing of 1588, which was the first published view of the city. The Battle of Cartagena de Indias (1586) or the Capture of Cartagena de Indias was a military and naval action fought on 9-11 February 1586, of the recently declared Anglo-Spanish War that resulted in the assault and capture by English soldiers and sailors of the Spanish city of Cartagena de Indias governed by Pedro de Bustos on the Spanish Main. The English were led by Francis Drake. The raid was part of his Great Expedition to the Spanish New World.
