"James I of Aragon: The Conqueror Who Shaped History" Step back in time to witness the grand banquet hosted by Pere Martell and Jacques I, where the fate of the Balearic Islands was decided. This momentous occasion, depicted in the Codex Poblet from the "Llibre del feits del Rei Jaume, " showcases James I's strategic prowess. The Altarpiece of St. George reveals another triumph for James I as his troops conquer Palma de Mallorca in 1229. The intricate details on this masterpiece bring to life the bravery and determination that characterized his reign. In a different light, we catch a glimpse of James I through a vellum illustration from Libre dels Feits. A monk stands before him, representing his commitment to justice and governance during his rule. Presiding over sessions of Cortes was one of King James I's responsibilities, as seen in an exquisite manuscript called Book of Usatges and Constitutions of Catalonia. His presence exudes authority and wisdom as he guides Catalonia towards progress. The fragmentary fresco depicting Arabs defending Mallorca against King James I's attack offers insight into both sides' fierce dedication during conflicts. These battles were pivotal moments that shaped not only Aragon but also its adversaries. A symbol of peace emerges with the Peace and Truce Assembly held in Tortosa under King James I's guidance. This event showcased his diplomatic skills, fostering harmony among diverse groups within his kingdom. Marching forward with determination, we witness King James presiding over the Cortes of Lleida in March 1242—a testament to his commitment to democratic governance captured beautifully on vellum manuscripts such as Constitucions de Catalunya. Jaime Mateu's stunning painting at Museu Nacional d Art de Catalunya immortalizes Jacques (James) I—his gaze filled with ambition yet tempered by experience—an enduring tribute to his legacy.
