EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph, we are transported back to the year 1539 in Havana, Cuba. The image depicts a poignant moment between Hernando de Soto and his wife, Isabella, as they bid each other farewell before he embarks on a perilous journey to Florida. The artist Alfred Russell beautifully captures the emotions of the couple in this Renaissance-era scene. De Soto stands tall and resolute, dressed in his conquistador attire, ready to explore new lands and expand Spanish influence in the New World. Isabella clings tightly to her husband's arm, her face filled with both pride and apprehension for what lies ahead. This print offers us a glimpse into an era marked by exploration and discovery. It reminds us of the courage and sacrifice required during the Age of Exploration when individuals like de Soto risked everything for their ambitions. As we gaze at this lithograph, we can almost feel the weight of history upon our shoulders. We are reminded of how these explorers shaped Latin America and South America through their expeditions - leaving behind a complex legacy that continues to impact these regions today. This artwork serves as a powerful testament to love amidst uncertainty; it immortalizes not only de Soto's departure but also showcases Isabella's strength as she supports her husband's endeavors from afar.
