Historic Record of the Conquest (El Morro)(2024)
The narration—interrupted by the soundtrack of Alfred E. Green's 1948 western Four Faces West—describes a 19th century photograph by Timothy O’Sullivan, titled Historic Spanish Record of the Conquest. The photograph is slightly out of focus, pinned against a bluish wall, and flaps in response to the occasional wind of a droning fan. And there’s bit of sunlight, reflected against a map of the West Indies.
