EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Landscape Episode Conquest America procession" takes us back in time to a significant moment in history. Painted by Jan Jansz Mostaert in Haarlem around 1535, this oil painting on panel depicts a dramatic scene of the conquest of America. In this vast hilly landscape dominated by a towering rock formation, we witness a powerful procession of indigenous people running with determination and courage. Armed with simple weapons like bows and arrows, sticks, and flails, they valiantly defend themselves against the invading Spaniards who attack with their advanced weaponry including lances, halberds, firearms, and cannons. The composition is rich in cultural diversity as it showcases various races such as Red Indians, American Indians, colored races from Central America alongside primitive races and peoples. This painting serves as an important reminder of the clash between different civilizations during that era. Jan Jansz Mostaert masterfully captures the intensity of the battle while also highlighting the resilience and strength displayed by these indigenous communities. The vastness of the landscape adds to the grandeur of this historical event. As we observe this artwork from Liszt Collection's archives today, let us reflect upon our shared past and strive for understanding and appreciation for all cultures involved in shaping our world.
