In Honor of Christopher Columbus

(Cristoforo Colombo 1451-1506)

Italian Visionary and Great Navigator

This bold explorer was the first European to set foot on uncharted land, on a West Indies beach in 1492. His four voyages brought Europe and the Americas together, forever changing history. A new nation was to rise. A new Democracy was born.

Sculptor Willaim F. Joseph
