EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - Christopher Columbus' autograph letter written to his beloved son Diego on the 5th of February, 1505. This invaluable artifact was gifted by Amerigo Vespucci himself to Columbus' son, adding an extra layer of significance. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this handwritten letter, which holds immense historical value. It is a testament to the extraordinary journey undertaken by Christopher Columbus during his exploration in America in the 16th century. The delicate script and intricate details on the paper transport us back in time, allowing us to glimpse into the personal correspondence between father and son. Preserved within the General Archive of the Indies in Sevilla, Spain, this rare manuscript serves as a tangible link between two great explorers who shaped our understanding of geography and discovery. Santiago Ortega's expert photography highlights every nuance and stroke within this vertical composition. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of Columbus' monumental achievements but also of his role as a loving father imparting wisdom onto his offspring. The unknown challenges faced by these pioneers come alive through each word penned with care. This photograph is not intended for commercial use; rather it invites us to appreciate history's treasures that have been carefully preserved for generations to come.
