EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Equestrian statue of Francisco Pizarro, a renowned Spanish conquistador who played a significant role in the conquest of Latin America during the 16th century. Crafted from bronze by an anonymous Spanish School artist, this masterpiece stands tall in Trujillo, Caceres Province, Spain. The statue depicts Pizarro mounted on his horse, symbolizing his leadership and dominance as he subjugated the Incas in South America. His helmet reflects the military prowess of this colonist who left an indelible mark on history. The portrait captures Pizarro's stern expression and strong features, revealing his determination and ambition. As one gazes at this image, it is impossible not to ponder upon the immense power dynamics that unfolded during that era. The presence of horses further emphasizes Pizarro's connection with animals and nature. These magnificent creatures were not only essential for transportation but also represented strength and vitality. This remarkable photograph transports us back to a time when exploration was driven by curiosity and ambition. It serves as a reminder of both the triumphs achieved through colonization as well as its devastating consequences for indigenous cultures. Ken Welsh has skillfully captured every intricate detail of this historical artifact through his lens. This print is undoubtedly a valuable addition to any art collection or history enthusiast's home decor.
