EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a significant moment in history as James II The Just, a revered figure from the 13th century, presides over the parliament of Barcelona in 1311. Captured on vellum by the talented artist Arnau de Pena, this illuminated manuscript titled "Libre Verd" transports us back to a time of medieval grandeur and political prowess. The image exudes an air of regality and power as James II sits upon his majestic throne, surrounded by courtiers and advisors. His presence commands attention and respect, symbolizing his authority as king. The intricate details of the artwork highlight the opulence of the era - from ornate tapestries adorning the walls to richly embroidered robes worn by those in attendance. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of the importance placed on parliamentary proceedings during that period. This gathering served as a platform for discussions, debates, and decision-making that shaped not only Barcelona but also Catalonia's future. Preserved within these pages is not just an artistic marvel but also a testament to James II's commitment to justice and governance. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, we can still appreciate and learn from our past leaders' dedication to their people. This remarkable photograph print allows us to delve into history's depths while admiring its artistic brilliance—a true treasure for any lover of medieval art or avid historian seeking insight into Catalonia's rich heritage.
