EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the intense moment of conflict between Spanish explorer Vasco Nunez de Balboa and the indigenous people of the Pacific coast during the 16th century. Balboa, dressed in full armor and leading a group of his men, is shown being attacked by a large group of natives as they make their way towards the Cordilleras, a mountain range in present-day Panama. Balboa's expedition, which began in 1513, was one of the earliest European explorations of the Pacific Ocean. Having already discovered the Pacific by crossing the Isthmus of Panama, Balboa and his men were on a mission to explore further west in search of new lands and resources. However, their journey was not without challenges. The encounter depicted in this print likely took place during their journey through the Darién Gap, a treacherous region known for its hostile indigenous populations. Despite the danger, Balboa pressed on, determined to expand Spanish territories and bring the riches of the New World back to Europe. The natives, who were fiercely protective of their lands and resources, saw the Spanish as a threat and were not hesitant to defend themselves. This print provides a glimpse into the complex and often violent interactions between Europeans and indigenous peoples during the age of exploration. Despite the challenges, Balboa's expedition continued on, eventually reaching the Pacific Ocean and discovering the richness of the region. This moment of conflict, however, serves as a reminder of the complex and often tumultuous history of exploration and colonization in the Americas.
