This powerful lithograph captures the fearless Maria de Molina, wife of King Sancho IV, standing strong against the fury of the nobles. After her husband's death, Maria took on the role of regent during a tumultuous time of lawlessness and violence in Castile. With tact and courage, she ruled with grace and determination.

Maria de Molina's legacy as a protector and leader is immortalized in this striking black and white print by Borras Abella, Vicente. The intensity of emotion captured in her expression reflects her strength and resilience in the face of adversity.
As we gaze upon this historical depiction, we are reminded of Maria de Molina's unwavering commitment to justice and protection amidst chaos. Her story serves as an inspiration for us all to stand up against injustice and defend those who cannot defend themselves.
