EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a pivotal moment in Spanish history during the Liberal Triennium (1820-1823) when the constitutionalist general, Felipe de Arco-Agustini, proclaimed the Constitution of 1812 at San Fernando Square in the Isla de León (now Cádiz) on September 24, 1820. The scene is filled with a diverse crowd of people, including women, who have gathered to witness the historic event. The colorful representation of the municipal historic museum in San Fernando, Spain, adds to the vibrant atmosphere of the gathering. The Constitution of 1812, also known as the "Pepinero Constitution," was the first democratic constitution in Spain's history, granting citizens the right to vote and establishing a bicameral legislature. Arco-Agustini's proclamation marked the beginning of a brief period of liberal rule in Spain, which was later suppressed by the conservative forces. This engraving is a testament to the significance of the moment and the people's desire for political change in Spain during the early 19th century. The image, with its intricate details and rich colors, provides a glimpse into the past and offers a valuable insight into the political and social climate of the time.
