Description
-
This chapter focuses on discussing the arrival of Spaniards and the Spanish conquest of Peru. This image depicts Charles V, the Holy Roman Emperor and king of Spain and Germany, sitting on a throne on the left side of the image holding a scepter in his right hand and a letter in his left. A man named Pedro de la Gasca, a priest and diplomat, is depicted on the right side of the image kneeling before the emperor. King Charles V appointed Pedro de la Gasca with the task of bringing a letter of pardon to Gonzalo Pizarro, with the hopes of bringing peace to Peru. The word “enperador” [emperor] is written on the arm rest of the throne to identify the emperor. There is a caption written above de la Gasca which reads, “el dotor Pedro de la Gasca” [the gifter Pedro de la Gasca]. The caption at the bottom of the image reads, “en Castilla” [in Castile].
