Its title, The First Voyage, points to a departure rather than a city street, which sets it apart from the other views on this board. Scenes like this usually show a ship leaving harbor or a party setting out, and they tend to carry the excitement and uncertainty of a journey into unknown waters. The name Columbus has two histories here: the Italian navigator whose 1492 crossing began sustained European contact with the Americas, and the American cities that took his name. The title alone does not say which Columbus or which voyage the scene shows, so the record's notes on artist and date are the best guide to its meaning.
