EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a miniature from the Codex of the conquest of Mexico, depicting the arrival of the Spanish in the 16th century. Created by an anonymous Spanish artist during this era, this artwork is housed in the Biblioteca Medicea-Laurenziana in Florence, Italy. The Codex itself is a part of Bernardino de Sahagun's 'Storia degli Aztechi' (History of the Aztecs), which was compiled between 1569 and 1575. This particular miniature captures a crucial moment in history when European colonization began to shape Mesoamerican civilization. Intriguingly detailed, this image transports us back to that fateful time when Spain set sail across vast oceans towards uncharted territories. A ship can be seen on choppy waters as it approaches an unknown landmass - North America. The significance of this event cannot be overstated; it marked the beginning of a new chapter for both continents involved. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of Europe's expansionist ambitions but also its impact on indigenous cultures and civilizations. It serves as a poignant reminder that history is often complex and multifaceted. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, Raffaello Bencini has captured every intricate detail with precision and elegance. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind this historical manuscript but also invites contemplation about our shared past and its consequences for our present world.
