Lector, tienes en tus manos un doble esfuerzo editorial: el que realizó a finales del siglo XIX Montaner y Simón, editando en 1882 las impresiones de viajes tanto literarias como artísticas de numerosos autores que escribieron y pintaron sobre lugares particulares de toda Europa, y que aparecieron en dos volumenes bajo el titulo de "Europa pintoresca", y el actual, llevado a cabo por Vision Libros, que pretende rescatar las imagenes originales, entregandonos bellisimas laminas pictoricas, sobre lo que en su dia, los pintores pensaron que merecia la pena ser retratado. Y asi, podemos contemplar, escenas campesinas, vistas de nobles ciudades, con sus calles concurridas de gentes vestidas a la antigua usanza, hombres que nos muestran viejas formas de ganarse la vida, con oficios ya perdidos, mercados animados, paisajes de la bravia naturaleza, ruinas... Nos trasladamos al contemplarlas hacia un mundo ya perdido pero que rescatamos de nuestra memoria al pasar pagina tras pagina evocando, soñando, imaginando... En un futuro, y de la mano de la misma editorial, veran la luz otros viejos libros de antiguos grabados, arrancados del olvido por los modernos sistemas de edicion, y que conseguiran transportarnos, sin duda alguna, al mas preterito pasado, como otros, que nos reflejaran el mundo presente como si fuese remoto y lejano. Disfruten de este libro y de los que con el tiempo apareceran. Es, seran, todo un lujo para nuestros adormecidos sentidos y un grato aliciente para nuestra mas loca imaginacion.
