"King Ferdinand of Aragon: Shaping the Course of History" In the year 1492, King Ferdinand of Aragon made a decision that would forever alter the course of Spanish history. The Expulsion of the Jews from Spain was a defining moment during his reign, as he and Queen Isabella sought to create a unified Christian kingdom. The partnership between Ferdinand and Isabella was strong, evident in their joint portrait from 1493. Together, they ruled over Castile and Aragon with determination and ambition. It was under their rule that Christopher Columbus received his sailing commission for his Enterprise of the Indies in Sante Fe, Spain in April 1492. Ferdinand's support for Columbus proved instrumental in one of history's greatest voyages. As depicted in colored engravings from the 19th century, Columbus was greeted by King Ferdinand upon his return from discovering America. This triumph marked a turning point not only for Spain but also for global exploration. Ferdinand's conquests extended beyond new lands; he also conquered Granada in 1492, symbolizing the completion of centuries-long Reconquista efforts against Muslim rule. His victory is immortalized in colored engravings depicting him as King Ferdinand V of Castile. The influence and reach of Ferdinand's reign are further exemplified by Ambrosio de Montesino presenting his translation to him and Queen Isabella. Their patronage encouraged intellectual pursuits and cultural exchange within their kingdom. While Ferdinand played an integral role alongside Isabella throughout these historic events, it is important to acknowledge her contributions as well. In polychrome wood artwork from 1520-22, we see Isabella deep in prayer—a testament to her piety and devotion. Finally, an intriguing glimpse into diplomacy unfolds through depictions showing "The Catholic King and Queen with an Embassy from the King of Fez. " These encounters highlight Ferdinand's ability to navigate complex international relationships and maintain a strong presence on the global stage.
