EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print takes us back to the year 1539, when Florida was being explored by the renowned Spanish conquistador, Hernando de Soto. The image depicts a bivouac of De Soto's expedition in the untamed wilderness of Florida. In this vintage illustration, we witness a fascinating blend of cultures and historical events unfold before our eyes. A group of American Indians, representing the native heritage and traditions of the land, interact with members of De Soto's expedition. Among them is a Catholic priest who accompanies the explorers on their journey. The scene showcases both curiosity and tension as these two worlds collide - one seeking to explore and conquer new territories while the other holds steadfast to its ancestral roots. Clad in armor, De Soto's men stand ready for any challenges that may lie ahead as they venture deeper into uncharted territory. This artwork not only captures an important moment in history but also highlights the complex dynamics between European colonizers and Native Americans during this time period. It serves as a reminder of how exploration shaped North America and laid foundations for future colonization efforts. With its rich details and vibrant colors, this hand-colored woodcut offers us a glimpse into Florida's past - an era marked by discovery, conquests, cultural exchange, and religious missions that forever altered the course of history in America's New World.
