EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Aragon's traditional dance and music, known as "La jota aragonesa". The image showcases a choir singing while a couple gracefully dances to the lively rhythm. Practiced during popular and religious festivities, this cultural tradition is deeply rooted in the region's heritage. The lyrics of these jotas often revolve around themes of love, sometimes taking on a grotesque or trivial nature. To ensure their widespread dissemination, these popular songs were printed on pliegos – small supplements made from multicolored paper – which were then distributed by the press. Gustave Dore, renowned for his artistic talent and attention to detail, captured this scene firsthand during his voyage in Spain back in 1862. His sketch was later transformed into an engraving that beautifully illustrates the vibrancy and energy of Aragonese culture. Published under the direction of Edouard Charton in "Le tour du monde" a journal dedicated to travel experiences, this engraving serves as a testament to Dore's ability to bring distant lands closer through art. Leonard de Selva has skillfully preserved this historical piece within his private collection. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness the joyous celebration of La jota aragonesa - an integral part of Aragon's rich cultural tapestry.
