From 1599 to 2014 is 415 years -- both periods being relatively short historical fourth dimension spans. This is illustrated alone to render the reader a historical perspective. In 1544, Republic of Ecuador was reportedly nether Spain's colonial rule. By 1564, Republic of Ecuador was dealing straight amongst Madrid.<br /> <br /> Who are these 3 men inwards the painting?
