EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking lithograph depicts an allegory of the liberation of Spain during the Peninsular War (1808-1814). The central figure is a resolute and determined woman, dressed in white, representing Spain. She stands tall and unyielding, her left foot crushing the serpent of foreign oppression beneath her heel. In her right hand, she holds a sword, symbolizing the courage and resolve of the Spanish people in their fight for freedom. Behind her, a crowd of diverse persons, both men and women, cheer and wave Spanish flags, signifying the unity and solidarity of the Spanish population in their quest for independence. In the background, the cityscape of Madrid, the heart of Spain, can be seen rising above the horizon, a testament to the enduring spirit of the Spanish people. The scene is framed by the elegant arches of the Museo de Historia, a symbol of the rich cultural heritage of Spain. The allegory is a powerful reminder of the courage and resilience of the Spanish people during the Peninsular War, when they successfully resisted the invasion and occupation by Napoleon's forces. The lithograph, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, is a beautiful and moving tribute to the indomitable spirit of Spain and its people.
