Pluma De Escribir

Description

The writing quill traces knowledge and law in the Ibero-American imaginary. From the 16th century, its presence in portraits and cabinet scenes evokes the gesture of intellectual creation and official documentation. A look at the hand that wields it reveals the scribe's authority and the power of the word.
