EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Anacaona, the Golden Flower" takes us back to the 19th century and showcases a stunning illustration by the Spanish School. The artwork is part of a private collection and was originally created as an illustration for La Civilizacion by Don Pelegrin Casabo Y Pages in 1881-82. The image depicts Anacaona, a remarkable figure from history who was known as both the chief and composer of ballads and narrative poems on the island of Hispaniola. She belonged to the Taino people, also referred to as Tano, and her story dates back to 1492 when Christopher Columbus arrived in their land. Anacaona holds great significance as she was not only a cacique (chief) but also an influential cultural figure among her people. Her talents as a poetess made her beloved by many, earning her the title "the Golden Flower". This striking chromolithograph captures her beauty and strength, showcasing her regal presence. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this historical gem through their fine art finder platform. It serves as a reminder of Anacaona's legacy and contributions to Taino culture. As we admire this print, let us appreciate Anacaona's resilience in preserving her heritage amidst colonization while celebrating her artistic prowess that continues to inspire generations today.
