This black and white woodcut print from 1547 transports us back in time to the Hispaniola gold-mining operations. The image showcases West Indian laborers diligently working amidst the lush landscape of the Caribbean. The men, with their determined expressions and sturdy tools, epitomize the spirit of early colonialism in the New World. Their efforts are focused on panning for gold along the riverbank, showcasing their expertise as skilled prospectors.

It serves as a testament to both human resilience and exploration. The woodcut technique used to create this print adds depth and texture to each figure, bringing them to life before our eyes.
