Product Description

"Inter Caetera" is a reference to the Pope Alexander VI's decree in the 15th century, where he attempted to stop the rivalry between the Portugese and Spanish empires by splitting the known world into two halves. The dividing line was made about 250 miles west of the Azore Islands.

This painting depicts the divided world as a globe in the foreground, with a Spanish Nau ship ploughing ocean water while limited to a basin. The basin is cross-shaped because after the Inter Caetera came into effect, the majority of discovery voyages seemed to be ruled by the church. The basin appears to be growing brittle, as Inter Caetera was the last time in history that the Catcholic church was mighty enough to successfully divert the globe between two nations.
