EDITORS COMMENTS
Folio 110r of the Codex Benito Santa Mora, housed in the Royal Library of the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial in Spain, presents a captivating miniature painting depicting the epic Battle between Greeks and Trojans during the Trojan War. This exquisite Gothic art piece, created in the 15th century, showcases the intricate details and vibrant colors characteristic of the era. The painting illustrates the intense clash between the Greek and Trojan forces, with warriors from both sides engaged in hand-to-hand combat, archers releasing arrows, and horses charging into the fray. The Greeks, led by the legendary hero Achilles, are shown on the left side, while the Trojans, led by their prince Hector, are on the right. The chaotic scene is further emphasized by the smoke rising from the battlefield and the expressions of determination and fear etched on the faces of the warriors. The Codex Benito Santa Mora is a precious addition to the Royal Library of the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial, which is renowned for its extensive collection of historical and artistic treasures. This miniature painting not only provides a visual representation of the legendary Trojan War but also serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of the Gothic period in Spain.
