EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the Entrance of the Cid Campeador, after a grueling siege in the city of Valencia. Dating back to 1094, this drawing transports us to the heart of medieval Spain, where military prowess and triumph were revered. The image showcases an impressive horseshoe arch as part of the entrance, symbolizing both architectural beauty and strength. The Cid Campeador himself is depicted riding into victory on his noble steed, surrounded by his loyal troops. Clad in military apparel befitting a conqueror, he exudes nobility and power. The artist's attention to detail brings history alive as we witness this significant moment unfold before our eyes. The drawing evokes a sense of awe at the bravery displayed during times of conflict and conquest in ancient kingdoms. Preserved for centuries, this artwork now resides in a private collection, serving as a testament to its historical significance. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and turmoil, there are moments worth celebrating – moments like these that shape nations and define legacies. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from 1880 by Santiago Ortega Pellicer, we are transported back to an era when honor was won through battle and courage knew no bounds. This photograph print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic skill behind it but also pay homage to those who fought valiantly for their kingdom on the West Iberian Peninsula.
