EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history as Vasco da Gama, the renowned Portuguese explorer, meets with Christians on the island of Sao Tome off the coast of West Africa. The image showcases the intersection of colonialism, Christianity, and exploration during this significant event in 1503.
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. It is a visual representation of an era defined by discovery, conquest, and cultural exchange.
