EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 15th century, capturing a significant moment in history - "The Discovery of Cuba". In the 1920s, this image was featured on a cigar card as part of the History of Cuba series by Geografico Universal. The scene depicts Christopher Columbus and his fleet arriving at the island on October 28,1492. The three ships, La Pinta, La Nina, and La Santa Maria, can be seen anchored in a picturesque coastal bay surrounded by lush trees and plants. This snapshot showcases both the natural beauty of Cuba's landscape and its historical significance. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece from the early 20th century, we are transported to that momentous day when Columbus first set foot on Cuban soil. It symbolizes not only an arrival but also curiosity and exploration that marked a new era for North and Central America. With great attention to detail, this print captures the essence of discovery - an essential concept shaping our understanding of history. Its inclusion in cigar packaging reflects how art intertwines with commercial products while preserving cultural heritage. "The Discovery of Cuba" is more than just a photograph; it represents an encounter between two worlds that would forever change each other's destiny. As we admire this timeless piece captured by The Print Collector29 (not associated with any company), let us appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance within our collective memory.
