EDITORS COMMENTS
: An Illustrated Journey Through Enlightenment Spain This etching, titled "Viage por España" (Journey through Spain), was created by the renowned Spanish antiquarian and scholar, Antonio Ponz, in 1774. The image, held at the Instituto Geológico y Minero de España in Madrid, is a testament to the enlightened spirit of the time, showcasing Spain's rich cultural and natural heritage. The horizontal composition of the print is filled with vibrant colors, adding depth and dimension to the intricately detailed illustrations and engravings. Ponz's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the depiction of various landscapes, from the verdant valleys to the rugged mountain ranges, all interspersed with quaint Spanish villages and grand architectural structures. As an enlightened scholar, Ponz aimed to provide an accurate and comprehensive record of Spain's geography, history, and culture. This etching, part of a larger work, served as a visual companion to his influential travelogue, "Viage de España," which was published in 1772. The work was widely acclaimed for its scholarly rigor and artistic merit, making it an essential reference for both academic and artistic circles of the time. The Instituto Geológico y Minero de España, a prestigious Spanish research organization, houses this valuable historical artifact, which continues to inspire and inform our understanding of Spain's rich past. This etching is but a glimpse into the fascinating world of 18th-century Spain, a time of enlightenment and discovery, captured through the keen eyes and artistic vision of Antonio Ponz.
