EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Contrabandistas, from Sketches of Spain" transports us to a bygone era in the Spanish countryside. Engraved by Charles Joseph Hullmandel and published in 1836, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of a clandestine world. In this scene, we witness a group of smugglers navigating through a rustic gateway. The attention to detail is remarkable as each character's costume tells its own story. A fearless female rider takes center stage, exuding confidence and determination as she leads the way. Her dress billows gracefully in the wind, symbolizing her freedom and defiance against societal norms. Accompanying her are male companions on horseback, their faces hidden beneath wide-brimmed hats that add an air of mystery to their identities. The horses themselves appear strong and resilient, embodying the spirit of these daring individuals who rely on them for both transportation and protection. The composition evokes a sense of adventure and danger intertwined with beauty and grace. It reminds us that even within seemingly ordinary landscapes lies an undercurrent of rebellion and excitement. This print from Bridgeman Images not only showcases exceptional artistic talent but also serves as a visual portal into history - offering glimpses into forgotten tales of smuggling exploits amidst the stunning backdrop of rural Spain.
