EDITORS COMMENTS
De Lorgues: Columbus Exorcises a Waterspout During a Storm (1492)," is an evocative and historically significant print depicting a pivotal moment during Christopher Columbus's first voyage to the Americas. The image captures the intrepid explorer, Columbus, standing boldly on the deck of his ship, the Santa Maria, as he attempts to quell the fury of a violent storm. In one hand, Columbus clutches a cross, the other hand extended towards a monstrous waterspout that looms ominously above the vessel. The waterspout, a natural phenomenon characterized by a spinning column of water, is often depicted in maritime folklore as an omen of impending doom. However, Columbus, a devoutly religious man, saw it as an opportunity to test his faith and exorcise the malevolent spirit believed to be causing the storm. With unwavering determination, he raises the cross high above his head, challenging the tempest's wrath. This print, created in the late 19th or early 20th century, is a testament to the enduring allure of the Columbus story and the rich history of exploration and discovery. The intricate details of the ship, the turbulent sea, and the ominous clouds all contribute to a vivid and immersive portrayal of this legendary moment. The print's historical significance is further underscored by the fact that it was the first European contact with the New World, marking the beginning of centuries of exploration, colonization, and cultural exchange between Europe and the Americas. In summary, "De Lorgues: Columbus Exorcises a Waterspout During a Storm (1492)" is a captivating and historically significant print that transports us back to a pivotal moment in history, when a brave explorer defied the elements and challenged the unknown, forever altering the course of human history.
