Barcelona: Establecimiento Editorial de Ramon Molinas, 1883. 52 n.ºs: il.; 320 mm. Complete collection of Year I of La Ilustración Ibérica , a Barcelona weekly magazine founded in 1883 by Ramón Molinas and directed by Alfredo Opisso, which remained in uninterrupted publication until 1898, spanning 835 issues. The masthead, designed by Luís Labarta, featured portraits of Camões, Cervantes, and Homer, symbolizing the Iberianist project that guided the magazine: to disseminate, under a single title, the literary, scientific, and artistic production of Spain and Portugal, with the collaboration of the most renowned writers from both countries and distribution extended to Spanish and Portuguese America. Profusely illustrated with engravings, portraits, and artistic reproductions, the publication was aimed at an upper-middle-class audience, being particularly well-received among women. This collection brings together the 52 issues of year I (no. 1, January 6, to no. 52, December 29, 1883), corresponding to the year the title was launched. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
