EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the intense gaze and unyielding presence of General Antonio Aranda Mata (1888-1979), a prominent figure in Spanish military and engineering history. The photograph, taken in Oviedo, Spain, showcases Aranda Mata in his full military regalia, complete with a sash adorning his chest and the distinctive red and gold epaulets of his rank. As a military man, Aranda Mata played a significant role in various Spanish conflicts, most notably the coup d'état of January 1936 that marked the beginning of the Spanish Civil War. However, Aranda Mata's legacy extends beyond the battlefield. He was also a highly respected engineer, having graduated from the Spanish Military Academy and later studying at the Polytechnic University of Madrid. His engineering expertise was instrumental in the development of Spanish infrastructure, particularly in the fields of transportation and telecommunications. In this image, Aranda Mata's strong, masculine demeanor is palpable, reflecting the determination and resolve that characterized his military and engineering careers. The vertical composition of the photograph further emphasizes his stature and authority. Benedito J., the unidentified photographer, skillfully captured a moment in history, immortalizing Aranda Mata's legacy for future generations to appreciate.
