EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print, titled "Historia General de España 1889-1990," is a captivating work of art that showcases the rich history of Spain through intricately detailed engravings. The central focus of the composition is a depiction of Roman ships sailing along the Spanish coastline, with three prominent figures in Spanish history standing before them. The first figure on the left is Antonio Valera y Alcalá (1824-1903), a renowned Spanish painter and academic, known for his historical and genre paintings. To his right is Juan Valera y Alcalá-Galiano (1824-1905), a prolific Spanish writer and literary critic, who made significant contributions to Spanish literature and culture. Standing between the two Valeras is Modesto Lafuente y Zamalloa (1806-1866), a prominent Spanish military officer, politician, and writer. His presence in the print underscores the importance of military and political history in Spanish culture. The Roman ships in the background are a reminder of Spain's ancient maritime heritage and its connection to the Mediterranean world. The engraving, created by an unknown artist, is a masterful blend of history, art, and culture, and is a testament to the rich artistic and intellectual traditions of Spain. This beautiful print was produced by the Sant Jordi Catalan Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Barcelona, Spain, and is a stunning example of the institution's commitment to preserving and promoting the artistic and historical heritage of Spain.
