EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite cover of a book by Ruiz de Alarcon, an esteemed playwright from the late 16th to early 17th century. The intricate design on the cover is a testament to the artistic brilliance of its creator, Vilaseca y Casanovas. With meticulous attention to detail, every element on this cover tells a story. At first glance, one cannot help but be drawn to the majestic dragon that adorns the center of the composition. Its fierce gaze and coiled body exude power and mystique. Surrounding it are delicate hinges that seem almost ethereal in their intricacy, adding an air of enchantment to this remarkable piece. The overall design is a harmonious blend of elegance and strength. The artist's skillful use of lines and patterns creates a sense of movement within static elements, making them come alive before our eyes. This masterful fusion captures both imagination and admiration. Preserved within Biblioteca Universidad in Barcelona, Spain, this rare find holds historical significance as well as artistic value. It serves as a window into an era when books were not only vessels for knowledge but also works of art themselves. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this extraordinary piece through their lens, allowing us all to appreciate its beauty even if we cannot physically hold it in our hands.
