EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Spain. Crown of Aragon. Conquest of Majorca (1232): James I going to the conquest," showcases a pivotal moment in Spanish history. The image, part of the "Glorias españolas" (Spanish Heroes) series by Carlos Mendoza, is an engraving that depicts King James I of Aragon (1208-1276) preparing for the conquest of Majorca in 1232. King James I, wearing a crown adorned with a ram's head - the symbol of the Crown of Aragon - stands outdoors, surrounded by his soldiers and knights. The vibrant colors of the illustration bring the scene to life, with the king's red cloak contrasting against the lush green landscape and the blue sea in the background. The engraving beautifully captures the determination and courage of the Spanish monarch as he embarks on this significant campaign. The Conquest of Majorca marked a significant expansion of the Crown of Aragon's territories, as it allowed James I to establish a stronghold in the Mediterranean. This event played a crucial role in the growth and influence of the Crown of Aragon, which was a collection of territories in the western Mediterranean ruled by the Spanish monarchs from the House of Barcelona. The "Glorias españolas" series by Carlos Mendoza is a testament to the rich history and heroism of Spain, and this particular illustration encapsulates the spirit of the Conquest of Majorca and the leadership of King James I. This piece of art is a must-have for anyone interested in Spanish history, art, or the Middle Ages.
