EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Cintra Palace of the Pena in 1909. The image, captured by an English photographer from the 20th century, is now part of the National Army Museum's collection in London. It is believed to be taken from an album that includes photographs by Lt. Col. Arthur Johnstone Richardson, Col. G. C. Sartorious, and Lt. C. L. Estridge. The photograph transports us back in time to a rural Portuguese village nestled on a hillside overlooking breathtaking Mediterranean views. The fortress-like palace stands proudly as a fortified royal summer residence, exuding both grandeur and charm with its vernacular architecture. The composition beautifully captures the essence of this historic town, showcasing its unique blend of natural beauty and man-made fortifications harmoniously coexisting together. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, it becomes evident why Sintra has long been regarded as one of Portugal's most enchanting destinations. With every detail meticulously preserved through photography, we are able to appreciate not only the architectural splendor but also the rich history that emanates from this hilltop palace. This stunning print serves as a testament to both the skillful eye of the photographer and Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving fine art for generations to come.
