EDITORS COMMENTS
This litography portrays Joaquín Abanca y Blanque (1778-1844), a prominent Spanish prelate, in an upright and formal pose. The black-and-white portrait, taken during the absolute monarchy period in Spain, reflects the reactionary and traditional beliefs of the time. Abanca y Blanque's serious expression and the crucifix he holds in his hands convey a deep sense of religious devotion and worship. The intricate details of his vestments and the ornate background add to the grandeur and opulence of the image. As a prelate, Abanca y Blanque held a high position within the Catholic Church hierarchy during the 19th century in Spain. The Spanish absolute monarchy, which was characterized by the concentration of power in the hands of the monarch, heavily influenced the social, political, and religious landscape of the country during this period. The portrait serves as a testament to the religious and political climate of the time, showcasing the importance of the Church and its leaders in Spanish society. This beautiful litography, taken from the extensive collection of the National Library in Madrid, is a valuable historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the past. It provides insight into the beliefs, rituals, and worship practices of the Spanish people during the absolutist era, making it a significant addition to any collection of European history or religious art.
