In Spain

[edit]

I heard Juan Carlos Monedero criticize that the Spanish Congress of Deputies has a picture of Alaric among the kings of Spain when he never stepped on the current territory of Spain. Is that true? Did Alaric ever venture south of the Pyrenees? --Error (talk) 23:14, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Aunque se habla de él como el primero de los reyes visigodos en Hispania, fue más bien un caudillo militar que nunca pisó la península Ibérica. El autor lo representa barbado, vestido con túnica y manto sujetando un pergamino. En una hornacina hay un busto clásico romano. Depositado en el Congreso de los Diputados. Madrid. (Texto extractado de Orihuela, M. y Castro, M. T. : "Presencia del Museo del Prado en el Congreso de los Diputados". Revista de las Cortes Generales, 73, 2008, p. 454).

Reading again the Presencia article, the text referenced at Prado is under the title Alarico I but with the image that Prado calls Alarico II. So I am not sure if the text is appliable to Alaric II. --Error (talk) 23:41, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
