EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from 1529, Ambrosius Ehinger, a courageous German conquistador, leads a determined group of men through the dense South American jungle en route to New Granada. Appointed as the new governor by the influential Welser family, Ehinger and his contingent embarked on this arduous journey to establish and govern the German colony in the New World. The air is thick with anticipation and excitement, as the explorers navigate their way through the lush, verdant foliage, their horses picking their way carefully over the uneven terrain. Ehinger, a seasoned adventurer, sets the pace at the front, his steely gaze fixed on the horizon. His men follow closely behind, their faces a mix of determination and trepidation, as they venture deeper into the unknown. The jungle, teeming with exotic wildlife, presents a formidable challenge to the group. The dense canopy filters the sunlight, casting dappled patterns on the forest floor. The air is heavy with the scent of damp earth and the cacophony of birdsong fills the air. But the explorers press on, undeterred, their spirits buoyed by the promise of new discoveries and the opportunity to build a new life in the New World. This powerful image captures the spirit of adventure and the indomitable human will to explore and conquer new lands. Ambrosius Ehinger and his men, with their unwavering determination, embody the pioneering spirit of the age, as they make their way towards New Granada, leaving behind the familiar comforts of their old world to forge a new future in the New World.
