EDITORS COMMENTS
"This enchanting engraving captures the intellectual and poetic essence of Jose Zatrilla y Vico, a Sardinian poet born in 1648. At the age of 37, Zatrilla y Vico is depicted in a studious interior, surrounded by the fruits of his literary labor. The room is filled with books, stacked high on shelves and scattered across a bookcase, reflecting his deep commitment to the written word. The poet is shown standing, dressed in a cloak and holding a quill and inkwell, ready to write. His long, flowing hair and well-groomed mustache add to his distinguished and modern appearance. In one hand, he holds a book, while in the other, he rests a shield emblazoned with the coat of arms of Villasalto, a nod to his Spanish heritage. A sword lies nearby, reminiscent of the warrior poets of old. The title of the engraving, "Jose Zatrilla y Vico Dedoni y Manca," is inscribed at the bottom, along with the date of creation. The intricate details of the engraving, from the folds of his cloak to the texture of the books, transport us back to the 17th and 18th centuries, offering a glimpse into the life of a dedicated and talented poet."
