EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the illuminated manuscript "St. James on a White Horse Riding over the Corpses of Moors and The Coat of Arms of the Family of Gomez" created by the Spanish School in the 17th century. Measuring 30.5x21 cm, this piece is part of a private collection. The image depicts St. James, mounted on a majestic white horse, triumphantly riding over the corpses of defeated Moors. This powerful representation symbolizes religious victory and Christian faith prevailing over adversity. The coat of arms belonging to the Gomez family is also prominently featured, adding a personal touch to this historic artwork. The manuscript itself is an illuminated masterpiece crafted on vellum in 1606 as part of Carta executoria de Hidalguia issued by Phillip III, King of Spain for Alonso Gomez. Its intricate details and vibrant colors make it truly remarkable. In this photograph captured by Bridgeman Images, we are able to appreciate every element with great clarity - from St. James' armor and determined expression to the fallen bodies beneath his hooves and musical instruments scattered around him. This image transports us back to early seventeenth-century Spain when religion played a significant role in society's fabric. It serves as a reminder not only of historical events but also highlights themes such as strength, faith, victory, and cultural identity through its portrayal of Saint James and his symbolic conquests.
