EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait illustration depicts King Ferdinand III of Castile, also known as "Fernando el Santo" or "Ferdinand the Saint," who ruled the Kingdoms of Castile and Leon from 1217 to 1252. Born in the late 13th century, Ferdinand III is celebrated for his military victories against the Moors, expanding the Christian territories in Spain. The intricately detailed lithography, created by Letre in the 19th century for the "Cronica General de Espana: Historia Ilustrada y Descriptiva de sus Provincias," showcases the monarch in regal attire, adorned with a grand brooch, cape, and cloak. The majestic crown atop his head symbolizes his royal status and authority. Ferdinand III's image has been preserved in this beautiful detail from the "Historia Ilustrada y Descriptiva de sus Provincias," published in Galicia in 1866. This portrait offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the medieval age and the rich history of the Iberian Peninsula. The meticulous engraving technique employed by Letre captures the essence of Ferdinand III's regal presence, making this an invaluable addition to any collection of European history, art, or medieval studies. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of this remarkable monarch and the significant role he played in the history of Castile and Spain.
