EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving, titled "Liberation of Bilbao during the Third Carlist War in 1874" offers a glimpse into a significant moment in history. Created by Santiago Ortega and published in La Ilustracion Espanola y Americana, this print beautifully captures the intensity and drama of war. The image depicts the city of Bilbao during its liberation from Carlist forces. The horizontal composition allows us to witness the chaos and destruction that accompanied this historic event. Spanish soldiers can be seen bravely fighting against their enemies while civilians anxiously observe from afar. The vibrant colors used in this engraving add depth and emotion to the scene. Shades of red symbolize both bloodshed and resilience, reminding us of the sacrifices made for freedom. Amidst the turmoil, we catch glimpses of hope as republican troops advance towards victory. Although created over a century ago, this print continues to serve as a powerful reminder of Spain's tumultuous past. It serves as an important historical document that sheds light on one chapter within the larger narrative of Spanish history. As we gaze upon this artwork today, let us remember those who fought for liberty and honor their courage. This piece invites us to reflect on our shared human experiences—warfare, struggle, triumph—and reminds us that even amidst darkness there is always room for hope and progress.
