EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving depicts Jose Zatrilla y Vico, a Sardinian poet, at the age of 37 years old. The image, titled "Jose Zatrilla y Vico Dedoni y Manca," was created during the 17th and 18th centuries. Zatrilla y Vico is shown standing in a studious interior, surrounded by an abundance of books and a bookcase filled with literature. He wears a long cloak, a sign of his noble status as a count, and a moustache that adds a modern touch to his appearance. The poet is depicted with an open book in his left hand, indicating his dedication to the written word. In his right hand, he holds a quill and inkwell, ready to pen down his poetic musings. A shield adorned with the coat of arms of Villasalto, his family name, hangs on the wall behind him. The room is filled with an air of quiet reflection, as if to suggest the deep contemplation that often accompanies the creative process. The engraving showcases the poet's regal bearing and intellectual prowess, reflecting the esteem in which he was held during his time. The intricate details of the books, shelves, and other objects in the room add to the overall richness and depth of the image, making it a true work of art in its own right. Jose Zatrilla y Vico was born in Sardinia, Italy, and is considered one of the most important figures in Sardinian literature. His poetry, which was influenced by both Italian and Spanish literary traditions, continues to be celebrated and studied to this day.
