EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the historic moment of the Foundation of San Miguel de Ibarra by Cristobal de Troya on September 28, 1606. The image transports us back to the early 17th century, a time of exploration and colonization in South America.
In this scene, we see a group of soldiers, priests, and officials gathered in front of City Hall in Ibarra. The city's greatest hall is adorned with intricate details that speak to the grandeur of the occasion. A man stands at a gallows with a placard in hand, symbolizing justice and order being established in this new settlement.
The landscape surrounding the city is breathtaking, with mountains towering in the background. The vibrant colors used by Cristobal de Troya bring this historical moment to life, allowing us to imagine what it must have been like to witness such an event firsthand.
As we gaze upon this artwork from centuries past, we are reminded of the complexities of colonialism and the impact it had on indigenous populations. This print serves as a visual storytelling piece that invites us to reflect on history and appreciate the artistry that captured these significant moments for future generations to admire.
