EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Christopher Columbus (1451-1506). Explorer and Navigator. Genoese. Columbus taking possession of the island of San Salvador," depicts the legendary figure of Christopher Columbus as he asserted his claim on the newly discovered land of the Americas. The image, created by Martin Rico after a painting by Isidro Gil in 1890, offers a vivid representation of Columbus and his crew as they set foot on the shores of the New World. The Italian explorer, born in Genoa in 1451, is shown in the foreground, dressed in the attire of a 15th-century admiral, with a cross in one hand and a map in the other. Behind him, a group of his men, dressed in period clothing, gather around a cross, symbolizing the beginning of European colonization. In the background, the caravel, the type of ship Columbus used on his voyages, is anchored in the calm waters of the Bahamas. The discovery of the Americas in 1492 marked a pivotal moment in world history, leading to the colonization of new lands, the spread of European culture, and the beginning of the modern era. This engraving, created in the late 19th century, offers a contemporary perspective on the life and accomplishments of this intrepid explorer and navigator. The rich colors and intricate details of the image bring the scene to life, transporting us back to the medieval age of maritime exploration and discovery.
