EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite miniature painting depicts James II of Aragon, also known as "James the Just," who ruled as King of Aragon from 1291 to 1327, as well as King of Sicily from 1286 to 1296 and Sardinia from 1324 to 1327. The image captures James in the setting of the Corts de Barcelona, the medieval government assembly of the city. The "Consell de Cent," or Council of One Hundred, is depicted in the background, an important institution in the governing of Barcelona during this period. This illustration is taken from the "Llibre Verd de Barcelona," or "Green Book of Barcelona," a significant volume documenting the history and governance of the city. The book was created during the Catalan-Aragonese school of Gothic art, around the late 14th or early 15th century. The illustration is a masterpiece of miniature painting, showcasing the intricate details and vibrant colors that characterize this artistic style. The painting was made by Ferrer Bassa and Arnau Bassa, two renowned artists of the time, and is currently housed in the Archdeacons House in Barcelona, Spain. The Green Book of Barcelona is an invaluable historical resource, providing insights into the political, social, and cultural life of Barcelona during the late Middle Ages. This image of James II at the Corts de Barcelona offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the majesty and power of the monarch and the complex institutions that governed the city.
