EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Golden Tower" in Seville, Spain, as captured by Reverend Samuel Manning in 1870. The image depicts a remarkable architectural marvel that once served as a Muslim watchtower and formed part of the Almohad city walls. Legend has it that this magnificent structure was adorned with golden tiles, hence its name. The engraving reveals the tower's impressive height, which was extended by Sebastiano Vander Borcht in 1760. Standing proudly on the banks of the River Guadalquivir, it offers a breathtaking view of Seville's bustling harbor filled with ships and boats. This picture not only captures the beauty of Spanish architecture but also provides insight into the rich history and cultural heritage of Southern Spain. Its decagonal shape reflects Moorish and Arab influences prevalent during its construction in the 13th century. As an essential defense mechanism for the city, "The Golden Tower" played a crucial role in safeguarding Seville from potential threats throughout centuries past. Today, it stands as an iconic symbol representing both strength and elegance within Seville's cityscape. With its intricate design and historical significance, this photograph invites viewers to embark on their own grand tour through time while appreciating one of Spain's most treasured landmarks.
