Amerigo Vespucci - Forgotten Namesake of America (2023x3)

Bemutató időpontja: 2023 Feb 01

Everyone knows Columbus, but few know Vespucci. And yet, the continent of America was named after the banker and explorer Amerigo Vespucci. This film attempts to find the truth about the almost unknown Italian; was he a swindler, as was later claimed, or a daring navigator who first recognised the significance of Columbus’ discovery?
