EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic moment in Panama's colonial history. The image depicts a map of Nombre de Dios, a significant settlement established by the Spanish in 1510. Serving as a crucial transshipment center for gold and silver from Peru, this port city played an essential role in facilitating trade and transportation during that era. The drawing itself dates back to 1541, offering us a glimpse into the early years of Panama's development. Its intricate details capture the exterior features of Nombre de Dios, including its bustling harbor where ships would dock to load precious cargo. This maritime hub served as a vital link between Latin America and Europe, enabling the exchange of goods and resources across continents. As we admire this piece from Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection, we are transported back in time to witness the thriving colonial atmosphere that once characterized Panama. The map not only highlights the strategic location of Nombre de Dios along the river but also emphasizes its significance as a gateway for Spanish exploration and conquest. Through this remarkable artwork, we can appreciate both the historical importance of Panama as well as its enduring legacy within Latin American history.
