EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph depicts a pivotal moment in Spanish history, as King Ferdinand VII makes his triumphant arrival in Puerto de Santa María on October 1, 1823, following the French invasion of Spain. The image, created through the meticulous process of lithography, captures the excitement and jubilation of the Spanish people as they welcome their monarch back to his rightful throne. Ferdinand VII had been exiled to France in 1820 after the liberal Trienio Constitutional Period, during which Spain experimented with a constitutional monarchy. However, the French intervention in the name of restoring the absolute monarchy brought Ferdinand back to Spain. The scene in the print is set against the backdrop of a bustling harbor, with a group of men and women gathered on the shore, waving flags and cheering. The king, dressed in a grand military uniform, stands atop a horse, his hand raised in a gesture of gratitude to his subjects. The political implications of this moment were significant, as it marked the end of the liberal experiment and the restoration of the absolute monarchy in Spain. The print serves as a visual testament to the power of the monarchy and the loyalty of the Spanish people, as well as the impact of external forces on the country's political landscape. This horizontal composition, with its rich detail and dynamic energy, is a testament to the skill of the lithographer and the enduring allure of historical moments. The print is part of the vast collection of the National Library of Madrid, a testament to Spain's rich cultural heritage and institutional history.
