EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic moment from the 13th century. The engraving, derived from a painting by Barbasan in 1809, depicts Peter II (III of Aragon) during the fierce Battle of Panissars in 1285. In this vertical composition, King Peter III stands tall and resolute amidst the chaos of war on the Iberian Peninsula. Clad in military clothing befitting his royal status, he brandishes his lance with unwavering determination. His regal presence is accentuated by the crown of Aragon atop his head and the royal shield proudly displayed at his side. The scene captures a pivotal clash between two powerful forces - Charles of Anjou representing France and Peter III leading Catalonia's Crown of Aragon. This battle near Girona marked an important chapter in history as it determined regional dominance within Western Europe. The artist's attention to detail is evident through intricate heraldry adorning both sides of the image, symbolizing each faction involved. The monochromatic palette adds depth to this historical moment while emphasizing its timeless significance. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable engraving serves as a testament to Santiago Ortega Fruhauf's passion for preserving our rich heritage. It invites viewers to delve into Spain's medieval past and reflect upon the valorous acts that shaped our world today.
