Our new  edition of Théophile Gautier's Travels in Spain (Voyage en Espagne) is now available on the website here.

Gautier's travelogue recounts his journey through the Iberian Peninsula in 1840, accompanied by art collector Eugène Piot. 

This enhanced translation of his Travels in Spain has been designed to offer maximum compatibility with current search engines. Among other modifications, the proper names of people and places, and the titles given to works of art, have been fully researched, modernised, and expanded; comments in parentheses have been added here and there to provide a reference, or clarify meaning; and minor typographic or factual errors, for example incorrect attributions and dates, in the original text, have been eliminated from this new translation. 

Our new edition is the first in a number of enhanced translations of Gautier's travel writings due to be published, progressively, on the site.
