EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Ildefonso Sunyol and Casanovas, a prominent lawyer and politician from Barcelona. Born in 1866 and leaving this world in 1913, Sunyol began his political journey as part of the Republican possibilist core at Ateneu Barcelones. In 1899, he played a pivotal role as one of the founders of Centre Nacional Catala, showcasing his dedication to Catalan nationalism. Two years later, Sunyol further solidified his commitment by co-founding the Regionalist League. His involvement with politics continued to flourish when he was elected councilman in 1901. However, it was during his time leading the leftist split within the League alongside Jaume Carner in 1904 that truly showcased Sunyol's determination for progressive change. This photograph serves as a testament to his influential presence during these tumultuous times. Preserved within a private collection, this image offers an intimate glimpse into Catalonia's rich history during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The horizontal composition adds depth to this moment frozen in time while emphasizing its historical significance. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by Santiago Ortega - an unknown photographer whose work has stood against the test of time - let us remember Ildefonso Sunyol and Casanovas' unwavering dedication towards regionalism, republicanism, and their profound impact on Spain's political landscape.
