Case del Campo
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating image from the early 18th century, taken from the travelogue "Voyages faits en divers temps en Espagne, en Portugal, en Allemagne, en France et ailleurs" (Voyages Made in Various Times in Spain, Portugal, Germany, France and Elsewhere) by an anonymous French traveler, known as Courtesy Martin. The photograph depicts a stunning view of the "Case del Campo," a summer residence of the Spanish court located in the outskirts of Madrid. The image offers a glimpse into the social and political life of the Spanish court during the early 17th century. The grandeur of the castle and its surrounding gardens is a testament to the wealth and power of the Spanish monarchy. The intricately designed sculptures and fountains in the gardens reflect the artistic and cultural influences of the time. The courtiers and nobles, dressed in their finest attire, can be seen enjoying the beautiful surroundings, engaging in leisurely activities, and socializing with one another. The barnardins, or court jesters, add a touch of humor and entertainment to the scene. The "Case del Campo" was not just a place of leisure, but also a symbol of power and prestige. The Spanish monarchs used the residence as a venue to showcase their wealth and power to visiting dignitaries and ambassadors. The castle's impressive architecture and gardens were a reflection of the monarchy's grandeur and influence. This photograph provides a unique insight into the social and political life of the Spanish court during the early 17th century, offering a glimpse into the customs and traditions of the time. The intricate details of the sculptures, the elegance of the gardens, and the fashionable attire of the courtiers all contribute to the richness and complexity of this fascinating image.
