EDITORS COMMENTS
In this hand-colored woodcut print, we are transported back to the 15th century, where a pivotal moment in history unfolds. The image showcases Christopher Columbus, the intrepid explorer, standing before Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand of Spain. With great enthusiasm and conviction, Columbus presents a map that holds within it the promise of adventure and discovery. The scene is filled with an air of anticipation as these royal figures listen attentively to Columbus's words. Their expressions reveal a mixture of curiosity and excitement for what lies beyond the vast Atlantic Ocean. It is through this historic meeting that plans are set into motion for one of humanity's greatest journeys - the exploration of the New World. This artwork beautifully captures not only the spirit of maritime exploration but also highlights the significance of communication between nations during this era. As trade routes were sought after and new territories discovered, ideas flowed across borders like waves upon an ocean shore. With its vintage charm and intricate details, this illustration transports us back to a time when maps held untold possibilities and uncharted lands beckoned brave souls like Columbus. It serves as a powerful reminder of our collective thirst for knowledge, adventure, and progress throughout history
