EDITORS COMMENTS
An invaluable piece of history captured in ink and paper. This print showcases the autograph letter of Amerigo Vespucci, written on 30th December 1492 in Seville to the Ducal Commissioner of Genoa. A remarkable artifact from the 15th century, it offers a glimpse into the mind of one of history's greatest explorers. In this handwritten letter, Vespucci shares his thoughts and experiences during his voyage to America, a land yet unknown to most Europeans at that time. The meticulous script reflects both his excitement and curiosity about this new world he encountered. Preserved within the Archivio di Stato, this historical document holds immense significance for Italy and Spain alike. It serves as a testament to their shared exploration and discovery during an era when boundaries were being pushed further than ever before. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every stroke made by Vespucci's quill pen with utmost clarity. Each word carries weight as we imagine the impact they had on shaping our understanding of geography and expanding horizons. Captured by photographer Santiago Ortega, this print transports us back in time, connecting us directly with an extraordinary moment in human history. It reminds us that behind every great discovery lies a story waiting to be unveiled.
