EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the courageous Mexican missionaries who embarked on a treacherous journey across the vast Pacific Ocean during the 16th century. Their noble mission was to bring Christianity to feudal Japan, a testament to their unwavering faith and dedication. The polychrome mural at Cuernavaca Cathedral in Mexico, dating back to the 18th century, vividly captures this historical moment. The mural depicts a scene of maritime adventure as these brave men navigate through tumultuous waters aboard their sturdy boat. Clad in traditional attire of Latin America, they stand united against the backdrop of an expansive ocean teeming with life. Fish swim alongside them, symbolizing both sustenance and divine providence. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation of this significant chapter in history but also pays homage to the rich cultural exchange between Mesoamerica and Japan during this era. It highlights how religion transcends borders and connects diverse communities across continents. As we admire this mesmerizing painting by Bradley Smith from Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, let us reflect upon the indomitable spirit of these Mexican missionaries who risked everything for their beliefs. May it inspire us all to embrace tolerance, understanding, and compassion in our own lives while cherishing our shared human heritage.
