EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the momentous discovery of Santo Domingo by Christopher Columbus. The image is a facsimile of a wood engraving from Paul Lacroix's renowned book, "Science and Literature in the Middle Ages" published in London in 1878. It depicts an illustration attributed to Columbus himself, where he appears as if witnessing the very scene he discovered. The composition transports us to Insula Hyspana, now known as Hispaniola, with its lush landscapes and pristine shores. As we gaze upon this historical depiction, we can almost feel the excitement and wonder that must have filled Columbus' heart when he first set foot on this uncharted territory. Christopher Columbus was not only an explorer but also a visionary who forever changed our understanding of the world. His Epistola Christoferi Colom serves as a testament to his determination and unwavering belief in reaching new horizons. Through Ken Welsh's expertly captured photo print, we are reminded of the significance of this momentous event in human history. It invites us to reflect on how exploration has shaped our world today and encourages us to embrace curiosity and courageously venture into unexplored territories ourselves. This remarkable piece is not just an illustration; it is a window into our past—a reminder that even amidst uncertainty, great discoveries await those who dare to dream big.
