EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor painting, titled "Corral de Comedias in a Court" by Lluis Bargallá, transports us back to the Spanish Golden Age (Siglo de Oro) of the 16th and 17th centuries. The scene unfolds before us as an open-air theatre, a Corral de Comedias, comes to life within the grandeur of a royal court. The classical architecture of the theatre's facade, with its intricate columns and ornate details, stands proudly against the backdrop of a clear, azure sky. The stage is set for a performance, with actors in period costume gathered around, preparing for their roles. The grandstand, filled with an eager audience, is adorned with rich fabrics and ornate decorations. The sense of anticipation is palpable as the house lights dim and the focus shifts to the stage. The Corral de Comedias, a type of early modern theatre, was a popular form of entertainment during the Spanish Golden Age. These theatres were often located in courtyards and were known for their open-air settings, allowing for a more immersive and communal experience for the audience. This panoramic painting, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural history of Spain during this time. The combination of the courtly setting and the lively theatre scene creates a striking juxtaposition, highlighting the importance of performance and entertainment in the lives of the Spanish people during the Siglo de Oro.
