EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century tile panel print showcases the historic event known as "The Taking of Lugo by Alfonso I of Asturias in 755". Created by Mensaque, A, this artwork transports us back to a significant moment in Spanish history. In this scene, we witness the powerful Alfonso I leading his troops into battle against the Moors who had occupied Galicia. The conqueror's determination and bravery are palpable as he charges forward on horseback, surrounded by an array of majestic animals. The artist skillfully captures the intensity of the conflict through intricate details and vibrant colors. The horses gallop with incredible energy, their muscles taut and manes flowing in the wind. From racehorses to ponies and shire horses, each animal symbolizes strength and resilience. As our eyes wander across the composition, we notice guards standing tall beside their king - ready to defend him at any cost. Their armor glimmers under sunlight while they keep a watchful eye on their surroundings. "The Taking of Lugo" serves not only as a visual representation of historical conquest but also highlights mankind's deep connection with animals throughout time. This tile panel print is truly a testament to both human triumphs and nature's beauty. Displayed at Plaza de Espana in Seville, Spain, this artwork stands as a reminder of past struggles overcome and celebrates Alfonso I's pivotal role in driving out Moorish occupation from Galicia.
