EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic "Peace and Truce (Pau i Treva) Assembly" held in Tortosa on April 28,1225. Presided over by King James I the Conqueror, this momentous event is depicted in a manuscript of the Llibre Verd from the 14th-15th century. The assembly took place under a majestic roof adorned with beams, creating an atmosphere of grandeur and importance. In this scene, we witness King James I seated at the center, wielding his sword and holding a scepter as symbols of his authority. Surrounding him are bishops wearing elaborate mitres and other dignitaries engaged in intense discussions about matters concerning Catalonia and Aragonese territories. The illuminated manuscript showcases intricate details that bring to life this medieval court gathering. The vibrant colors highlight not only the regal attire worn by attendees but also their expressions of determination and diplomacy. This image offers a glimpse into an era when kings convened assemblies to establish peace treaties and truces among warring factions. It serves as a reminder of King James I's efforts to consolidate power while fostering unity within his realm. Preserved for centuries, this photograph allows us to appreciate both the historical significance of such gatherings and the artistic mastery displayed in manuscripts like Llibre Verd de Barcelona. It stands as a testament to Catalonia's rich cultural heritage and its enduring impact on European history.
