EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment of tenderness between Christophe Colomb (Cristoforo Colombo) and a child. The image is taken from the 19th-century edition of Jules Verne's book "Christophe Colomb" published by Hachette. The French School artist behind this print beautifully portrays the renowned explorer, Christopher Columbus, alongside an innocent child. The composition exudes warmth as Columbus gently interacts with the young companion at his side. Their connection seems to transcend time and space, symbolizing the passing down of knowledge and inspiration from one generation to another. It is a poignant reminder that even great explorers like Columbus were once children themselves, filled with curiosity and wonder. Displayed in the Musee Thomas Dobree in Nantes, France, this print showcases both historical significance and artistic excellence. Leonard de Selva expertly captures every detail, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the characters but also their surroundings. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a different era when exploration was at its height. We can almost feel the excitement that must have coursed through Columbus' veins as he embarked on his legendary voyages across uncharted waters. This photograph serves as a testament to Jules Verne's enduring literary legacy while immortalizing Christopher Columbus' spirit of discovery for generations to come.
