EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, depicting Pelagius (685-737), the visionary founder of the Asturias Kingdom, alongside his grandson Fruela I (722-768). Created by the Spanish School in the 11th century using pigment on vellum, this masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Biblioteca Nacional in Madrid, Spain. Pelagius, also known as Pelayo, was a noble Visigoth who achieved a momentous victory in the Battle of Covadonga during the Spanish Reconquest. This battle took place in 722 AD and marked an important turning point against Moorish invaders. Pelagius' triumph not only secured his position as king but also laid the foundation for future resistance against Moorish rule. Fruela I succeeded his grandfather as King of Asturian Kingdom from 757 to 768. His reign witnessed significant developments and challenges within this medieval kingdom. The miniature painting captures their regal presence and offers insight into their roles as leaders during a crucial period. Semblanzas de Reyes, from which this artwork originates, provides valuable glimpses into royal figures throughout history. Preserved at the National Library in Madrid, this precious artifact serves as a testament to Spanish heritage and its enduring legacy. Bridgeman Images brings us closer to these historical figures through their expertly curated collection of fine art prints like this one.
