EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Hernando Cortes and Thevet: A Historic Encounter in Mexico, 1547". This evocative image captures a significant moment in the annals of history as Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortes (1485-1547) engages in a conversation with the French cartographer and explorer, Jacques Le Gardeur de Saint-Pierre, better known as Thevet. The scene unfolds in Mexico, in the year 1547, several decades after Cortes' groundbreaking conquest of the Aztec Empire. Cortes, a man of formidable presence, is depicted in his full armor, embodying the strength and determination that propelled him to victory. His long, flowing beard and fur-trimmed cloak add to his regal appearance, reflecting the grandeur of the Spanish conquest. Thevet, on the other hand, stands attentively before Cortes, clad in the traditional European garb of the time. With a map or chart in hand, he listens intently, likely seeking Cortes' insights into the geography and culture of the New World. This encounter between Cortes and Thevet holds historical significance as it represents the intersection of European exploration and colonization efforts in the Americas. The exchange of knowledge and information between these two influential figures would have far-reaching consequences, shaping the course of history in the centuries to come. The photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was being discovered and explored, and the lines between conquest and discovery were often blurred. This image serves as a powerful reminder of the rich and complex history that continues to fascinate and inspire us today.
