EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic moment captured in Barcelona in 1493, Christopher Columbus (1451-1506) humbly receives the warm welcome of King Ferdinand II of Aragon (1452-1516) and Queen Isabella I of Castile (1451-1504) in the House of Deputation. Columbus, having recently returned from his groundbreaking voyages to the New World, sought the recognition and support of the Spanish monarchs to further explore and colonize the newly discovered lands. With a sense of awe and excitement, Columbus kneels before Ferdinand, extending his hand in submission and respect. The monarchs, dressed in their royal attire, extend their hands in return, granting Columbus their blessing and approval for his continued endeavors. This moment marked the beginning of Spain's dominance in the New World and solidified Columbus' legacy as a pioneer of exploration and discovery. The House of Deputation, a government building in Barcelona, served as the backdrop for this significant encounter between Columbus and the Spanish royals.
