EDITORS COMMENTS
This 14th-century engraving from the Book of the Coronations of the Kings of Spain transports us back in time to witness a momentous event in history. The image depicts Alfonso VII, the esteemed King of Galicia, Leon, and Castile, on his regal journey towards his coronation. Mounted on a majestic white horse and adorned with a crown that signifies his royal status, Alfonso exudes power and authority. As he rides beneath the resplendent banners of Castile and Leon, we can almost hear the cheers and applause from the crowd gathered along his path. The architectural details surrounding him hint at an opulent setting befitting such an important occasion. The medieval illustration beautifully captures not only Alfonso's grandeur but also showcases intricate details like knightly armor and traditional Spanish attire. It is evident that every stroke on this parchment was carefully crafted to bring this historical moment to life. This remarkable print serves as a testament to Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection's commitment to preserving significant moments in history through art. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are reminded of Alfonso VII's legacy as one of Spain's most influential rulers and how art has the power to transport us across centuries into another world entirely.
