Summary[edit]

Description
Français : Retable de la Vierge des Navigateurs, (ou "des bons vents"), d'Alejo Fernandez, 1535. Cette oeuvre est la première de l'art occidental à représenter des natifs américains, en plus de divers personnages, dont Christophe Colomb, et différents types de navires espagnols du XVIème siècle. Dans les cartels on reconnait de haut en bas et de gauche à droite Saint Sébastien, Saint Jacques, Saint Elme et Saint Jean l'évangéliste. Les navigateurs venaient prier devant cette vierge, et c'est devant ce retable que s'est recueilli Juan Sebastián Elcano au retour du premier voyage autour du monde de l'histoire. Chapelle des quartiers de l'Amiral, Real Alcazar de Séville, Espagne.
English: Altarpiece of the Virgin of the Navigators, (or "of the good Breeze"), by Alejo Fernandez, 1535. Around the Virgin, one of the figures is Christopher Columbus. This was the first time American natives had been depicted in European art. One can see different types of vessels of the spanish fleet of the 16th century. The four side panels, from top to bottom and for left to right, show Saint Sebastian, Saint James, Saint Telmo and Saint John the Evangelist. It was here that the sailors bound for the Americas prayed for a good wind to assist them in their crossing, and Juan Sebastián Elcano gave thanks here after completing the first ever circumnavigation of the Earth. Real Alcázar of Seville, Spain.
