Alfonso Barcelona Feminine Isabel Marble Pedralbes Presents Persons Up Right
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases a historic moment in Spanish history, as Queen Isabel II (1830-1868) presents her young son, Alfonso XII (1857-1885), to the public for the first time. The image was captured in the Pedralbes Palace in Barcelona, Spain, in the year 1860. The sculpture of Agapit Vallmitjana i Barbany (1830-1905) beautifully encapsulates the regal and feminine energy of the scene. The marble sculpture, created by the renowned Catalan artist, depicts Queen Isabel II in an elegant and upright position, dressed in the traditional royal attire, with a serene expression on her face. Her left hand is delicately placed on her chest, while her right hand holds her young son, Alfonso XII, who is dressed in the formal attire of a prince. The child looks up at his mother with a curious and innocent gaze. The color palette of the photograph is muted, with the white marble sculpture standing out against the dark background, creating a striking contrast. The vertical composition of the image adds to the sense of grandeur and importance of the moment being depicted. The presence of other persons in the background, including women in traditional Spanish attire, adds to the authenticity and historical significance of the scene. Agapit Vallmitjana i Barbany was a master sculptor of his time, and this work is a testament to his artistic skill and ability to capture the essence of the subjects he portrayed. The sculpture is a cherished piece of Spanish cultural heritage and a reminder of the rich history and traditions of the country.
