This historic encounter marks the beginning of a new era of exploration and colonization. The artwork transports us to a time when maritime expeditions were filled with excitement and adventure. It reminds us of the bravery and ambition that fueled these journeys across vast oceans, as explorers like Columbus sought new lands and territories.
