This is a detail from the Monument to the Discoveries which is a memorial statue dedicated to Henry the Navigator. It stands in the harbor of Lisbon, Portugal near the mouth of the Tagus River. It was permanently erected in 1960 to honor Prince Henry who led the voyages of discovery into the New World in the 15th Century. The Portuguese were legendary mariners & explorers. One can barely imagine risking the treacherous waters of the Atlantic Ocean in wooden boats powered only by sails.
"Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go."
~ Albert Einstein
