EDITORS COMMENTS
Wedding Guests Depart from Burgos: A Scene of Farewell from The History of the Seven Sons of Lara by Antonio Tempesta (1612) This etching by the renowned Italian artist Antonio Tempesta, titled "Wedding Guests Depart from Burgos. Gonzalo Gustos Remains with Ruy Velazquez While the Infantes Accompany Dona Lambra to Barbadillo," offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Baroque era. The image, created in 1612, is part of the series "The History of the Seven Sons of Lara," and is currently housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in the United States. The scene depicts the moment of departure from a grand wedding celebration in Burgos, Spain. The newlywed couple, Dona Lambra and her groom, are seen riding off on horseback, accompanied by their infante attendants. The joyful scene is contrasted by the melancholic figure of Gonzalo Gustos, who remains behind, deep in thought, as he watches his friends and loved ones depart. The artwork is a masterful depiction of the Baroque era, with intricate details and dynamic use of light and shadow. The horses and riders are expertly rendered, their muscles taut and veins bulging as they prepare for the journey ahead. The human figures, too, are full of emotion and expression, their faces etched with the joy, sadness, and anticipation of the moment. The etching is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture and preserve the legends and stories of the past. It invites us to imagine the lives of these characters, to ponder the meaning of their actions, and to appreciate the rich cultural heritage that they represent. Whether viewed as a work of art or as a historical document, "Wedding Guests Depart from Burgos" is a treasure to be cherished and celebrated.
