EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1556, showcasing the Inca city of Cusco in Peru after it fell under Spanish rule. Hand-colored with meticulous detail, this 19th-century woodcut reproduction beautifully captures a 16th-century illustration of this historic city. In the image, we see a bustling settlement nestled amidst breathtaking natural surroundings. The remnants of ancient Inca temples stand tall, serving as poignant reminders of a once-thriving native civilization that flourished here for centuries before European colonization. The influence of the Spanish conquerors is evident too, as a grand colonial church dominates the skyline. The walled city exudes an air of mystery and intrigue; its gates symbolize both protection and control over this newfound territory. Roman Catholicism has firmly taken root within these walls, marking one aspect of Spain's cultural imprint on Latin America during this era. This artwork transports us to an era when two worlds collided – the old and new – resulting in profound changes that shaped history forever. It serves as a testament to the resilience and adaptability of indigenous cultures while also shedding light on the complex dynamics between settlers and colonists. As we gaze upon this vintage masterpiece, let us reflect on how far we have come since those transformative times in our shared past.
