EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the scholarly intensity of Ambrosio de Morales (1513-1591), a renowned Spanish historian and antiquary of the late 16th century. Born in Toledo, Spain, Morales dedicated his life to the study of history and archaeology, making significant contributions to the fields of numismatics, epigraphy, and topography. Morales' extensive knowledge of Roman and Visigothic history, as well as his expertise in the study of ancient coins and inscriptions, earned him a reputation as a leading authority on the history of Spain. He authored numerous works, including "De Rebus Hispaniae," a comprehensive history of Spain, and "Icones Historiarum," a collection of historical illustrations. The image of Morales, captured in this print from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, conveys a sense of deep concentration and intellectual curiosity. He is depicted wearing the attire of a scholar, with a quill pen in hand and a stack of books at his side. The intricate details of the print, such as the folds in his robe and the texture of the parchment, add to the sense of authenticity and historical significance. Morales' work was instrumental in the development of Spanish historiography and the study of the country's rich cultural heritage. His meticulous research and dedication to preserving the past continue to inspire scholars and history enthusiasts to this day. This portrait serves as a reminder of the importance of intellectual pursuit and the enduring value of historical knowledge.
