EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Interview in Alcaniz of King James I the Conqueror with Hugo Forcalquer and Blasco of Aragon before the conquest of Valencia. Dating back to the 13th century, this exquisite miniature from the Llibre dels Feyts copy of the manuscript offers us a detailed glimpse into medieval times. In this scene, we see King James I, also known as Jaime I, seated on his majestic throne wearing his crown. Surrounding him are knights and nobles who display their loyalty and obedience to their king. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as they prepare for an important conquest. Hugo Forcalquer stands tall beside King James I, representing vassalage and feudalism. His presence symbolizes not only his own allegiance but also that of many others who have pledged their loyalty to the Crown of Aragon. Blasco of Aragon can be seen engaging in conversation with King James I, perhaps discussing strategies or seeking guidance for what lies ahead - the imminent conquest of Valencia. The vibrant colors used in this codex highlight its artistic brilliance while transporting us back to a time when Spain was still under Moorish rule. This historical artifact now resides within the Library of University where it serves as a testament to our rich past. Thanks to Santiago Ortega's skillful photography, we are able to appreciate every intricate detail captured within this horizontal composition. It is through such images that we can truly grasp and appreciate our
