EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the 1970s transports us to the enchanting Christmas fair in Barcelona's Cathedral square. In the foreground, a shop proudly displays an array of meticulously crafted manger figures, capturing the essence of this festive season. The market buzzes with activity as families meander through stalls adorned with traditional cribs and other holiday delights. The image offers a glimpse into Catalonia's rich history, where vibrant traditions like Saint Lucia and Santiago Ortega come alive during Christmastime. Against the backdrop of Francoism, this snapshot encapsulates both cultural resilience and communal celebration. Preserved in a private collection, this horizontal print evokes nostalgia for simpler times when communities would gather at such fairs to revel in joyous festivities. It serves as a testament to how these cherished customs have endured throughout generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of heritage, let us appreciate its historical significance while acknowledging that it should not be used for commercial purposes. Instead, let it serve as a reminder of our shared past and inspire us to continue honoring age-old traditions that bring warmth and unity during the holiday season.
