Columbus with Telescope

Junior Artist Ages 6 to 9 · Medium detail Level 3/5

Tested by kids aged 6 to 9

Christopher Columbus stands aboard ship, peering through a telescope toward the horizon as he explores the open ocean. He wears period clothing including a long coat, wide-brimmed hat, and a medallion around his neck. The scene captures the moment of discovery with ship rigging and calm waters in the background.

Coloring tip

Try using browns and tans for Columbus's clothing and coat to give him an authentic period look. Color the telescope gray or bronze, and make the ocean water blue with the sky a light blue or yellow to create contrast and make the explorer really stand out.
