1. Title: "Tulga, Visigothic King of Hispania, Septimania, and Galicia (640-642): A Regal Portrait from the Seventh Century" This evocative engraving captures the regal presence of Tulga, the Visigothic King of Hispania, Septimania, and Galicia, who ruled from 640 to 642. The image, a testament to the artistic and historical richness of the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages, offers a glimpse into the grandeur of the Visigothic monarchy. Tulga's portrait, adorned with an intricate, ornate crown, symbolizes his divine right to rule and his connection to the celestial world. The engraving, a masterpiece from the seventh century, showcases the advanced artistic techniques of the time. The meticulous details, from the delicate folds of Tulga's robe to the intricate patterns on his crown, demonstrate the skill and craftsmanship of the artist. The image also highlights the political landscape of the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages. Tulga's rule extended over Hispania (modern-day Spain), Septimania (the southern part of modern-day France), and Galicia, making him a significant monarch in both European and Iberian history. His reign marked a period of relative peace and stability, allowing for the flourishing of art, culture, and commerce. This historic portrait serves as a reminder of the complex and fascinating history of the Visigothic Kingdom and its monarchs. It invites us to delve deeper into the rich tapestry of European history, exploring the intricacies of the Visigothic monarchy and the broader context of the Middle Ages.
