What it is made of

The source

Treasure Island

Sea charts with the cross and the bearings written in by hand, three-masted schooners, the sailor's chest with its quadrant and its West Indian shells, the crutch tucked under the shoulder. The blackened paper disc of the black spot, Cap'n Flint the parrot, the skeleton laid out with its arms above its head, working as a compass needle pointing E.S.E. Period engraving, ink on yellowed paper, and the crooked handwriting of a hand-drawn map.

Charts, Knots and Mutinies

Portolan charts on vellum, cut across by sheaves of rhumb lines, with the fleur-de-lis pinned to the north and a cross marking the east. Octants and sextants in ebony and brass: graduated limb, vernier, mirror on the axis and smoked glass shades swung down across the path of the light. And the vocabulary of the fo’c’sle: square two-colour flags, knotted rope, anchors, swallows, a pig and a cockerel, and HOLD FAST spread across eight knuckles.

Black Flag

Black flags that aren't the generic skull: Bartholomew Roberts standing on two crania lettered ABH and AMH, a flaming cutlass in his hand. Blackbeard with lit cannon fuses under his hat, smoking on either side of his face, and three brace of pistols slung in holsters like bandoliers. A piece of eight bearing the Pillars of Hercules, a three-masted galleon with its stern loaded with lanterns, and the plank jutting out over the gunwale: an object that never existed and that no drawing does without today.

The Footprint in the Sand

Survival kit drawn plainly, without ornament: the bare footprint in the sand, the notched post that keeps the tally of the days, the goatskin parasol with the hair turned outwards, the raft of barrels and planks, the double-staked palisade in front of the cave, and the map of the island. Alongside it, the plain vocabulary of shipwreck: the grounded hull, the drift, the signal on the beach. The source is the copper and wood engravings of the editions from 1719 to 1891, with their fine hatching and their hard black and white.
