Cristobal Colon

On the year 1992, I decided I would take a sabbatical year as a painter except for just ONE portrait of Christopher Colombus. He arrived on a small Island near the Bahamas on october 12 of 1492. On the 12th october of 1992, I added a little fire on the island (to show the presence of the Indians) on the right behind Cristobal and signed it,. My sabbatical year was finished, but 500 hundred years ago, this was the date of the beginnings of great new changes in Mankind History. I had to crop it a little bit, because I wanted to send it right away, with poor light, tonight, new year's eve 2006,
