Framed Guatemala Artwork
Ecuador was one of the most difficult countries to colonize by the Spanish conquistadors and one that spent just two centuries under their rule. The elevated terrain and the high altitudes constituted major obstacles for the Spanish, as well as the Inca Empire that previously ruled this land. It comes as no surprise that so many of the Framed Ecuador Art up for sale at FramedArt.com are emphasizing the unique geology of this country, which sits thousands of feet above sea level.
Framed Ecuador Art can be split into art prints dedicated to the mainland and the famous Galapagos Islands which are located more than 600 miles in the West. This is the place where some of the rarest and most exotic animal species in the world live, hence the interest of biologists and botanists. While the flora and fauna on this island are the ones that fascinate tourists, the geological background and the manner in which the coastline is shaped is equally amazing.
Ecuador is a shining example of how people of different backgrounds and belonging to various minorities can coexist together in perfect harmony. The nation has large minority groups ranging from European and native Americans to people of African descent. Framed Ecuador Art also highlights the charm of the capital city of Quito, with its great city center which was added on the UNESCO world heritage list almost 4 decades ago, as an example of Spanish colonial city.
