La Ilustración de Madrid (1870-1871). Revista de transición del romanticismo al realismo

La Ilustracion de Madrid (1870-1871) (Enlightenment in Madrid) was a magazine that tried to unite political and cultural information with a delicate graphics presentation from Spanish artists. It was directed by Gustavo Adolfo Becquer and promoted by Valeriano Becquer in its graphic side. The magazine lost a big part of situation when the two brothers, Valeriano in September and Gustavo Adolfo in December of 1870, passed away. Even so it survived a year longer and it is considered one of the most fundamental journalistic publications of the study of the transition from romanticism to realism.
