EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the grand inauguration day of the Fiesta Alegre Fronton court and stands in Madrid, Spain. Published in 1892 by La Ilustracion Espanola y Americana, this archival image showcases a significant moment in Spanish history. The elaborate interior design of the court and its surrounding stands exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The now-demolished Fiesta Alegre Fronton court was once a hub for thrilling ball games, particularly the traditional Basque pelota. It served as a gathering place for locals who were passionate about this beloved sport. The atmosphere must have been electric on that inaugural day, with spectators eagerly anticipating their first glimpse of the intense matches that would take place within those walls. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it is impossible not to feel a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. This photograph serves as a reminder of how architecture can encapsulate history and culture within its very structure. Although no longer standing today, the memory of the Fiesta Alegre Fronton court lives on through images like these – preserving moments from our past that continue to shape our understanding of Spanish heritage.
