Christopher Columbus Poster, Vintage Portrait - Christopher Columbus Print - Portrait Said To Be Christopher Columbus

Poster Of A Portrait Said To Be Of Christopher Columbus.


✨ Perfect for framing

This poster portrait purports to show Christopher Columbus. The inscription identifies him as "the Ligurian Colombo, the first to enter by ship into the world of the Antipodes 1519," but the writing is not entirely trustworthy and the date 1519 means that it cannot have been painted from life, as Columbus died in 1506.

Originally painted by Sebastiano del Piombo (Sebastiano Luciani)

✨ Christopher Columbus Trivia

★ Columbus made four voyages to the New World.

Although best known for his historic 1492 expedition, Columbus returned to the Americas three more times in the following decade. His voyages took him to Caribbean islands, South America and Central America.

★ Columbus returned to Spain in chains in 1500.

Columbus’s governance of Hispaniola could be brutal and tyrannical. Native islanders who didn’t collect enough gold could have their hands cut off, and rebel Spanish colonists were executed at the gallows. Colonists complained to the monarchy about mismanagement, and a royal commissioner dispatched to Hispaniola arrested Columbus in August 1500 and brought him back to Spain in chains.
