In the foreground, we see Vasco da Gama adorned in traditional Portuguese attire, standing alongside Christian converts who wear turbans as a symbol of their newfound faith. The presence of a crucifix held by one of the Christians emphasizes the theme of evangelism and conversion that was prevalent during this era.
The backdrop of Sao Tome's lush landscape serves as a reminder of the exotic locations that European explorers like Da Gama encountered on their voyages. This meeting between cultures highlights both the curiosity and ambition that drove these historical figures to discover new lands and peoples.
Overall, this print from Mary Evans Picture Library offers a glimpse into a momentous chapter in world history when East met West, religion intersected with politics, and exploration paved the way for future discoveries.
