EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing "Detail of the animals, from the Arrival of Vasco da Gama in Calicut" tapestry. Created by the Flemish School in the 16th century, this artwork is housed at Banco Nacional Ultramarino in Portugal. The tapestry depicts an important historical event - the arrival of Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama (1469-1524) in Calicut. Intricately woven into this textile masterpiece are various elements that bring life to the scene. Ships gracefully sail into port, symbolizing exploration and trade routes established during that era. Colorful birds soar above, adding a touch of vibrancy to the composition. The presence of camels signifies both exoticism and practicality as they were commonly used for transportation along coastal regions like India. A unicorn can also be spotted among these magnificent creatures, perhaps representing mythical tales or emphasizing rarity and wonder. The attention to detail is remarkable; every animal seems meticulously crafted within their cages or natural habitat. This tapestry not only serves as a visual feast but also offers insights into maritime history and cultural exchange between different parts of the world. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this snapshot from Fine Art Finder, allowing viewers to appreciate and delve deeper into this historic moment through its intricate details and rich symbolism.
