"The truth about Cristovão Colombo origins and the reason why he kept it so secret and unknown to those surrounding him...

Natural from Portugal? Sure! But why the shame and so much secret? The reason why was very clear! Colombo was Portuguese from Jewish descent, forced to hide his origins due to the persecution against the Jewish people that had been ordered to leave Portugal or accept the Christian religion!

An order given by the Portuguese king even though persecutions to the Jewish people were continuously going on all over Europe and surely influencing Colombo's decision to full both Portuguese, Spanish and Italian about his true origins!

Colombo allowed both the Portuguese, the Spanish and the Italian to exploit, nurture and live with one of their major historical lies while he certainly mocked them in his heart for being the nations causing misery and distress to his people the Jewish.

In this drawing we see represented the old Cuba, in Portugal, and the new Cuba, discovered and named by Colombo's in honour of his Portuguese city of Cuba in Alentejo, the city where he come from and the place he surely loved and desired to somehow return."

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Technic Drawing

Drawing is a technique of visual representation on a flat support. The term "drawing" designates both the action of drawing, the resulting graphic work, and the shape of any object. It is also a representation on a surface of the shape (and possibly the light and shadow values) of an object or figure, rather than their color. There are a large number of drawing techniques: “Linear drawing” represents objects by their outlines, edges and some characteristic lines; beyond this limit, the drawing develops by representing the volume by shadows, often by means of hatching, incorporates colors, and joins, without clear transition, the painting.
