This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Madrid in 1842. The image, originally an engraving from 1870, showcases the iconic Puerta del Sol, a historic gateway that has witnessed countless moments in Spanish history. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a carriage making its way through the busy square. The horse-drawn vehicle is surrounded by pedestrians going about their daily lives, providing a glimpse into the vibrant atmosphere of 19th century Madrid. The composition of this photograph emphasizes both the architectural grandeur of Puerta del Sol and the human activity that animates it. The horizontal frame captures not only the wide expanse of space but also invites our eyes to explore every detail within it. Although little is known about the photographer behind this remarkable piece, Santiago Ortega's name is associated with preserving this historical moment for future generations.
