EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Burgos in 1890, the historic capital of Castile. The image showcases the magnificent Gothic Cathedral, a World Heritage Site that stands as a testament to centuries of architectural brilliance. The creator of this mesmerizing piece remains unknown, but their ability to capture the essence of this iconic landmark is undeniable. The photograph portrays an exterior view of the cathedral, with its towering spires reaching towards the heavens. The intricate details of the building's roof and rooftops are highlighted against a backdrop of nature and surrounding housing. Backlit by sunlight, the silhouette-like figures add depth and perspective to this monochrome composition. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where literature and art flourished alongside religious devotion. Edmund Ollier's book "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" serves as our guide through history, providing context for this enchanting visual journey. Burgos Cathedral continues to be a symbol of Christianity in Spain even today. Its significance extends beyond religion; it represents Spanish culture and national pride. This print reminds us not only of Burgos' rich heritage but also invites contemplation on how architecture can shape our understanding of a country's past. With UNESCO recognizing its importance as a World Heritage Site, this print captures more than just bricks and mortar – it encapsulates centuries worth of stories waiting to be discovered within its walls.
