EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "La Atlantida" by Jacinto Verdaguer, a renowned Catalan epic poet from the 19th century. Published in Barcelona in 1878, this edition in Castilian transports us to the mythical world of prehistoric Iberian peninsula. The image is sourced from Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. Verdaguer's masterpiece serves as an inspiration for Manuel de Falla's opera oratorio and delves into the ancient legends surrounding Atlantis. The illustration within this print depicts the Santa Maria ship of Christopher Columbus, who according to Verdaguer's poem sailed on this vessel in search of Atlantis. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of Catalonia and Spain during that era, showcasing their rich cultural heritage and historical significance. It evokes a sense of wonderment as we imagine embarking on a voyage filled with mystery and exploration. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, our imagination takes flight alongside Columbus aboard his majestic ship. We can almost feel the anticipation pulsating through its wooden hull as it sails towards uncharted waters. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this remarkable work by Verdaguer, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and delve into its profound narrative once more. This photograph is a testament to both artistic excellence and historical importance – an exquisite addition to any fine art collection.
