Hispania

1899 · Barcelona, H. Miralles · 37 pictures

Hispania is an 1899 art and history volume published in Barcelona by H. Miralles, held by the Getty Research Institute, with its pictures reproduced as plates and text-page engravings. The plates range from a loose wash scene of street figures in winter to a formal Goya-style court painting, a Spanish-language engraving of mounted riders at a city gate, and an ornate bordered woodcut of a woman riding a horse past a castle, giving a designer varied models of tone, border ornament and crowd composition.
