EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic statue of a knight on horseback, believed to be the legendary El Cid, dating back to the 18th century. Located in San Pedro de Cardena, Castilla y Leon, Spain, this remarkable piece of art stands as a testament to both history and artistic craftsmanship. The imposing figure of the knight atop his gallant steed evokes a sense of power and bravery. With its sword raised high and armor gleaming in the sunlight, it appears as though he is ready for battle against any foe that dares to challenge him. The photograph beautifully showcases the intricate details of this masterpiece. From the flowing mane of the horse to every crease in the knight's armor, each element has been carefully sculpted with precision and skill. Surrounded by an aura of mystery and intrigue, San Pedro de Cardena holds significant historical importance as it was once considered El Cid's original burial place. This adds another layer of fascination to an already captivating subject matter. Through John Ferro Sims' lens, we are transported into a world where knights roamed on horseback and chivalry reigned supreme. It serves as a reminder not only of our rich cultural heritage but also pays homage to those who have fought valiantly throughout history.
