EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of history in the form of Rerum sicularum libri VIII, a book written by Nicolai Specialis, also known as Nicola Speciale, a 14th-century historian of Sicilian origin. In his work, he meticulously detailed the deeds of the kings of the Crown of Aragon and Sicily between 1282 and 1337.
Also featured in this image is Marca Hispanica sive limes hispanicus, a book written in Latin by Pierre de Marca in the 17th century. De Marca was tasked with formalizing the border treaty between France and Spain, which ultimately led to Catalonia being annexed by France in 1641.
Etienne Baluze later expanded and edited this collection before it was published in Paris by Francois Muguet in 1688. This historical military library located in Barcelona, Catalonia holds these invaluable works that shed light on significant events from centuries past.
As you gaze upon this photo print, you can't help but feel transported back to an era where kingdoms clashed over borders and power dynamics shifted dramatically. It serves as a reminder of how crucial it is to preserve our historical documents for future generations to learn from and appreciate.
