"The Family of Boabdil Leaving the Alhambra" is a painting by the Spanish artist Manuel Gómez-Moreno González. Created in the 19th century, this work captures a poignant historical moment: the departure of Boabdil, the last Nasrid ruler of the Emirate of Granada, and his family from the Alhambra Palace. This event marked the end of Muslim rule in Spain following the Reconquista by the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile, in 1492.

Gómez-Moreno González, known for his historical and genre paintings, sought to depict the emotional gravity of this transition. The painting illustrates the somber procession of Boabdil and his family as they leave the majestic Alhambra, a symbol of Islamic art and architecture. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the architectural elements of the Alhambra, as well as the expressions and attire of the figures, which reflect the cultural and historical context of the period.

The composition of the painting emphasizes the contrast between the grandeur of the Alhambra and the subdued mood of the departing figures. The use of light and shadow enhances the emotional impact, highlighting the sense of loss and nostalgia associated with the fall of Granada. This work is not only a historical representation but also a reflection on themes of displacement and change.

Manuel Gómez-Moreno González was part of a broader movement of Spanish artists who, in the 19th century, were interested in exploring national history and identity through their art. His works often focus on significant historical events, aiming to evoke a sense of national pride and reflection.

"The Family of Boabdil Leaving the Alhambra" remains an important piece in the study of Spanish art, offering insight into the historical narrative and artistic trends of the time.
