EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an extraordinary historical moment between two iconic figures - King Manuel I the Great and Vasco de Gama. The 19th-century engraving, created by an unknown artist, beautifully captures the grandeur of this encounter. In this scene, we witness King Manuel I graciously receiving Vasco de Gama, a renowned Portuguese explorer who made significant contributions to maritime history. The king's regal presence is evident as he welcomes Gama with open arms, symbolizing his appreciation for the explorer's achievements. The composition exudes a sense of importance and reverence. The attention to detail in both the characters' attire and surroundings transports us back to the 15th century when Portugal was at its zenith as a global power. This image serves as a testament to Portugal's rich history and its influential role in shaping world exploration during that era. Giancarlo Costa has masterfully preserved this historic moment through his expert restoration work on this print. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of the bravery and ambition that drove individuals like Vasco de Gama to embark on perilous voyages across uncharted waters. This print not only offers us a glimpse into an important chapter of Portuguese history but also serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and discovery.
