I include an excerpt from a comic that asked me in City Hall Uclés (Cuenca) to commemorate the 9th anniversary of the famous battle that pitted against amorávides Castilian kingdom in 1108. This time the challenge has been to use the same materials as the medieval artists and imitate the style of Las Cantigas de Santa Maria, codex from the late thirteenth century. In short, it is egg tempera on parchment, using powdered mineral pigments such as azurite, malachite, limonite or iron oxide, mixed with egg yolk or gum arabic, as appropriate. This is not a copy, because the composition is original, although I have enough documentation used as a reference the late thirteenth and early fourteenth century to imitate the style (the thumbnails Alphonsine, MS I.33, Maciejowski Bible ...).
has two pages and it tells the course of the battle by a dozen bullets accompanied by a romance that is not my work. Scanned original to the comic book was finally printed by offset on colored paper in A3, which was distributed among local youth.
