This print takes us back in time to the historic surrender of Montefrio near Granada, Spain in 1486. The image depicts a significant moment during the Reconquista, when the Moors handed over the keys of the city to Ferdinand the Catholic and Queen Isabella. It is based on a bas-relief found in Granada Cathedral and was originally published by Paul Lacroix in his book "Military and Religious Life in the Middle Ages" around 1880. The scene captures both the tension and triumph of this pivotal event. The intricate details of this medieval illustration transport us to an era where kings, queens, and religious leaders played crucial roles in shaping history. We can almost feel the weight of responsibility as Ferdinand receives these symbolic keys from Moorish representatives. This image serves as a powerful reminder of Spain's rich cultural heritage and its complex past marked by conflicts between Christians and Muslims. It showcases not only historical significance but also artistic excellence through its detailed portrayal of architecture, clothing, weaponry, and facial expressions. Ken Welsh has masterfully captured this momentous occasion through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both its historical importance and aesthetic beauty.
