EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 16th century, capturing a significant moment in history - the construction of the first Christian church in San Miguel de Piura, Peru. The city itself was founded by Pizarro in 1532, marking an important milestone in Spanish colonization. The engraving, created in 1726 by Santiago Ortega, transports us to a time when Hernando de Soto battled with indigenous Indians. This historical event adds depth and complexity to the image, showcasing the clash of cultures during this period. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every detail of this remarkable scene. The intricate architecture of the church stands tall against the backdrop of a bustling city that would soon become an integral part of Peruvian heritage. Preserved within the library of the university, this print serves as a window into our past. It reminds us not only of Spain's influence on Peru but also highlights how Christianity played a pivotal role in shaping local communities. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded that history is not just about dates and names; it is about people and their stories. This image invites us to reflect on those who came before us - both conquerors and conquered - and encourages us to explore our shared cultural heritage with curiosity and respect.
