Summary
The earliest known graphic representations of the Prado de San Jerónimo, a public promenade developed during Philip II's reign, have been identified. These visual depictions emerged under Philip III following the court's return from Valladolid. The study focuses on these initial representations, providing insights into the landscape's evolution as an artistic and scientific space in Madrid. By analyzing historical documents and imagery, researchers reconstruct the promenade's early development, contributing to our understanding of its significance during the Spanish Golden Age.
