What is the name of this painting's artist?

• I recently remembered a painting we had discussed in history class last year, and managed to find it online. However, I'm unable to find the name of the artist, and therefore can't find out any more about the painting itself. The painting in question is this one: http://data.inh.cat/files/pictures/100727204445124.gif ((alternate link: http://www.google.com/search?q=Christopher+Columbus+paintings&um=1&hl=en&sa=N&biw=1366&bih=667&tbm=isch&tbs=simg:CAQSEgkzsz3nSWWlCCEWqpu7Bqi_1kA)) I would greatly appreciate it if someone could tell me the name of the artist and/or the painting title. ((I asked this question once before, but it said there were technical difficulties so I apologize if this is asked twice))
