EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of Antonio de Nebrija, a renowned Spanish humanist and grammarian. The engraving, part of the illustrious collection known as "Illustrious Men" beautifully captures Nebrija's intellectual prowess and historical significance. Born in 1444, Nebrija played a pivotal role in shaping Spain's literary landscape during the 15th and 16th centuries. His contributions to grammar were groundbreaking, as he authored the first comprehensive Spanish grammar book titled "Gramática de la lengua castellana" (Grammar of the Castilian Language). This monumental work laid the foundation for standardized Spanish language usage. The vertical intaglio engraving portrays Nebrija with an air of wisdom and authority. His penetrating gaze reflects his deep understanding of language and literature. Created by an unknown artist, this historic piece is now preserved at Madrid's National Calcografía. Antonio de Nebrija remains an influential figure in Spain's cultural history. His dedication to education and linguistic studies continues to inspire scholars worldwide. Through this evocative photo print, we are reminded of his enduring legacy as a pioneer in linguistics and his significant impact on Spanish literature.
