EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the era of Spanish conquest in Peru. The image showcases a fleet of Spanish ships sailing towards the shores of Peru during the reign of Incan emperors Huascar and Atahualpa, around 1527. The intricate pen and ink drawing was created by Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala for his renowned work "El primer nueva cronica y buen gobierno" (The First New Chronicle and Good Government), which was published between 1583 and 1615. In this historical moment frozen on paper, we witness the collision of two worlds - the mighty Inca Empire with its rich culture and ancient traditions, facing an imminent encounter with European colonizers seeking wealth and power. The ships stand as symbols of exploration, adventure, but also impending upheaval. As we gaze at this artwork, our imagination is transported to that distant time when brave sailors embarked on perilous journeys across vast oceans to discover new lands. We can almost feel the anticipation in their hearts as they approach uncharted territories filled with uncertainty. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder of the complex history that shaped Peru's destiny. It invites us to reflect upon the clash between civilizations, highlighting both triumphs and tragedies that unfolded during this transformative period known as the Spanish conquest.
