EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts James I the Conqueror (1208-1276), the illustrious King of Aragon, in regal attire. The image, titled "Aureum Opus reaglium Privilegiorum Civitatis et regni valentiae cum historia cristianissimi regis iacobi ipsu primi conquistatori," was edited in Valencia in 1515 by Luis Alanya. James I, also known as Jaume I in Catalan, ruled over the County of Barcelona and the Kingdom of Aragon during the Middle Ages. He is celebrated for his military conquests, particularly the Reconquista of the Balearic Islands and the expansion of Aragonese territories in the Mediterranean. The engraving portrays James I on horseback, wearing a crown adorned with precious stones and holding a scepter in his right hand. The background reveals a grand house, possibly a royal palace or a university, symbolizing the prosperity and cultural development of his kingdom. The historical significance of James I is further emphasized by the inclusion of the Latin inscription, which translates to "The Golden Work of the Privileges of the City and Kingdom of Valencia with the History of the Most Christian King James, the First Conqueror." This engraving is a testament to the rich history and artistic achievements of medieval Europe. The intricate details and vibrant colors showcase the skill and craftsmanship of the engraver, Luis Alanya, and the importance of the historical figure of James I the Conqueror in the annals of Spanish and European history.
