Alfonso, a name that echoes through history and resonates with power, wisdom, and adventure. From the Folio of Codex of the Usages depicting the Catalan Parliament to Ischia's majestic Castello Aragonese in Italy, Alfonso's influence spans across borders and time. In Barcelona International Exhibition of 1929, an iconic poster captured the essence of this remarkable figure. Princess Beatrice of Saxe-Coburg stood proudly alongside her family, embodying Alfonso's regal spirit. But it wasn't just about grandeur; Alfonso had a taste for thrilling races too. The 15-meter Ostaria, Hispania, and Sophie Elizabeth battled fiercely against each other in a breathtaking upwind race in 1911. History comes alive as we delve into pivotal moments like the day before the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa in 1212, there on that fateful day when destinies were shaped by courage and strategy. The Cantigas de Santa Maria (Virgin Mary Songs) reveal another facet of Alfonso's character - his devotion to faith and artistry. Through these songs, he celebrated spirituality while showcasing his creative brilliance. Artistic endeavors continued with CABA CASAMITJANA's masterpiece "Maria, " capturing both beauty and vulnerability in one stroke, and is a testament to how deeply Alfonso inspired artists throughout generations. Speaking of sieges, who can forget the formidable alliance between Alfonso II of Aragon and Alfonso VIII of Castile? Together they faced countless challenges head-on during their conquests – leaving behind an indelible mark on history books. Alonso X earned himself the title "The Wise" for good reason - his intellectual pursuits reshaped knowledge during his reign from 1221-1284. His contributions spanned literature, astronomy, lawmaking – truly living up to his moniker.
