Scene with Columbus (?) at center, soldiers at right, and men in robes at left 1850 - 1900

This 19th-century print by Italian artist Luigi Boscolo depicts a scene with Christopher Columbus. The artwork, possibly an illustration for a historical publication, features Columbus at the center, flanked by figures in robes on the left and soldiers on the right. The detailed interior setting and the dramatic composition lend a sense of historical accuracy and grandeur to the scene. The print's monochrome tones enhance the sense of historical realism and evoke a sense of the past. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York houses this artwork.
