EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of a Geographic map of Spain and Portugal during the time of the reconquista from the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa in 1212 to the fall of Granada in 1492 offers a glimpse into the historical struggle for control over the Iberian peninsula. The map depicts Al-Andalus, or Islamic Iberia, under Muslim domination, showcasing the territorial shifts and battles that shaped this pivotal period.
From the decisive victory at Las Navas de Tolosa in 1212 to the eventual conquest of Granada by Christian forces in 1492, this map illustrates how power ebbed and flowed between Muslim and Christian rulers. The intricate details on display highlight key cities, regions, and boundaries that were hotly contested throughout this era.
Engraved by Houze in 1851 as part of ""Atlas Universel,"" this piece is a testament to both artistic skill and historical accuracy. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding not only geographical features but also political dynamics during one of Europe's most significant periods.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the clash of civilizations that defined medieval Spain and Portugal. It is a reminder of how history continues to shape our present reality, making it essential for us to study and appreciate these complex narratives.
