Collection description
The relaciones de sucesos about the episodes of locust plagues in Early Modern Spain are a significant source for the study of this disaster. The official advices and the narrative sources tell us about how the authorities (political and religious) and the local community lead with the invading grasshopper, with information about technical practice and ritual remedies based on the invocation of the saints. Prints sheets were often accompanied by simple woodcuts, in which the visual content was not always directly linked to the text. The aim of this work is to show the production of newssheets of this kind of plague, focusing on texts with sacred iconography, institutional insignia or other kind of engraved images
