EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare gem from the 16th century - Palmerin de Oliva, a renowned knight's book. Printed in Toledo by Pedro Lopez de Haro in 1580, this literary masterpiece holds immense historical significance. The photograph was taken at the Library of Catalonia, where it is carefully preserved among other treasures. The image captures the essence of this ancient tome with its vertical composition and monochromatic tones. Its weathered pages tell tales of chivalry, honor, and adventure that have captivated readers for centuries. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to a time when knights roamed the lands of Spain. Palmerin de Oliva remains an enigma; its author unknown but its impact undeniable. This book has become an integral part of Spanish literature and continues to inspire generations with its timeless stories. Santiago Ortega skillfully captures the intricate details of this precious artifact through his lens. Every crease on its cover tells a story while every word within carries us into another world. As we admire this photo print, let us appreciate not only the craftsmanship involved in producing such a work but also the dedication shown by institutions like the Library of Catalonia in preserving our cultural heritage. May these books continue to serve as windows into our past and reminders of our shared human experiences for years to come.
