The Supplicants - A Glimpse into Spain's Troubled Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the powerful painting "The Supplicants. The Expulsion of the Gypsies from Spain, 1872" by Edwin Longsden Long. Measuring an impressive 182.9x287 cm, this oil on canvas masterpiece is housed at the Royal Holloway, University of London. Long's painting depicts a poignant scene set in the Church of Santa Annunciata in Valladolid during a significant period in Spanish history. The year is 1609, and King Philip III has ordered the expulsion of both gypsies and moriscos (Muslim converts to Christianity). In this emotionally charged composition, we witness soldiers standing guard as Cardinal Gonzales pleads with Philip II for mercy towards these marginalized communities. The artist skillfully portrays various supplicants – men, women, children – desperately begging for clemency while clutching their belongings or even animals like donkeys and goats. Their faces reveal anguish and fear as they face an uncertain future. Through his brushstrokes, Long invites us to reflect upon themes of discrimination, social injustice, and religious intolerance that plagued Spain during this tumultuous era. This artwork serves as a reminder that historical events have far-reaching consequences on individuals' lives. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection provided by Bridgeman Images, let us contemplate how societies can learn from past mistakes and strive for inclusivity rather than
