EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th century engraving captures the breathtaking panorama of The Jonquera, a historic town located in Catalonia, Spain, near the French border. The Llobregat River winds its way through the scene, reflecting the vibrant colors of the town and the surrounding landscape. In the distance, the majestic Pyrenees Mountains rise, their peaks capped with snow. The Panisars Crossing, a strategic point of passage between France and Spain, can be seen in the foreground, with the Pertus and Belgarde Castles perched atop the hills. This engraving was created during the negotiations of the Spanish-French Pyrenees Treaty in 1659, a significant moment in the history of Europe. The intricate details and rich colors bring the scene to life, transporting us back in time to an era of diplomacy and cultural exchange. The Jonquera, with its charming streets and historic architecture, remains a popular destination for travelers seeking to explore the rich history and natural beauty of Catalonia and the Pyrenees.
