EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Lena (1899). Engraving of the Chapter V," is a beautiful and intricate work of art by the renowned Spanish writer and naturalist, Carles Bosch i Lawn (1831-1897). The image, printed and published in Barcelona in 1935, depicts a young girl named Lena, who is tenderly interacting with an aging donkey. Bosch, known for his deep connection to nature and the natural world, masterfully captures the bond between the two characters. The scene is set in the 9th century, a time when donkeys were an essential mode of transportation in Catalonia, a region in northeastern Spain. The rich colors of the print bring the image to life, with Lena dressed in traditional Catalan attire and the donkey adorned with a simple, yet elegant, bridle. The engraving is a testament to the deep respect and appreciation for animals that was prevalent during this period. Bosch, who was born in the late 1800s, was a contemporary of the Modernist movement in Spain. His works often explored the natural world and the human condition, making this engraving a valuable addition to any collection of Spanish literature and art from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The intricate details of the engraving, from the folds in Lena's dress to the textures of the donkey's coat, make it a stunning piece that transports the viewer to a simpler time in history. Overall, this engraving is a beautiful and poignant reminder of the connection between humans and animals, and the importance of preserving the natural world.
