EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "PERU: ATAHUALPA & PIZZARO" takes us back to the historical encounter between Francisco Pizarro and Atahualpa in 1532. The image, derived from Felipe Guaman Pomo de Ayala's renowned work "El primer nueva cronica y buen gobierno" offers a glimpse into this significant moment during the age of discovery. In the drawing, we witness two worlds colliding as Pizarro, a Spanish conquistador, meets Atahualpa, the last Inca king of Peru. Clad in armor and armed with a spear, Pizarro represents European colonialism and exploration. On the other hand, Atahualpa sits upon his royal throne as an emblematic figure of power within the Inca Empire. The composition beautifully captures both men engaged in conversation while surrounded by text that adds depth to their encounter. A monk stands nearby, symbolizing Christianity's influence on early explorers like Pizarro. This visual narrative serves as a reminder of Latin American history and its complex dynamics shaped by encounters between indigenous civilizations and European conquerors. It highlights the clash between cultures and empires that forever transformed South America. Sarin Images / The Granger Collection has masterfully preserved this precious piece of artwork from Peruvian history through their exceptional printing technique. This print is not just an aesthetically pleasing addition to any collection but also an educational tool that invites viewers to delve into one of humanity's
