EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the historic Procession of Our Lady of Grace in the Cebada Square, Madrid, dating back to circa 1741. The procession, depicted by Manuel de Chozas in the 18th century, is a powerful symbol of Catholicism and faith in Spain during the reign of Philip V.
In this image, we see a group of devout men carrying an image of the Virgin Mary through the bustling city streets. The crowd gathers around them, captivated by the solemn ceremony taking place before their eyes. The friars dressed in traditional habits add to the religious imagery that permeates this scene.
The architecture of Plaza la Cebada serves as a backdrop to this profound display of devotion and spirituality. As onlookers watch with reverence, it is clear that religion plays a significant role in shaping Spanish society during this period.
Through Prisma Archivo Fotografico's lens, we are transported back to a time when faith was at the center of public life in Europe. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our rich Christian heritage and cultural traditions that continue to influence us today.
