Este ensayo se propone leer la figura del poeta y los modos con que Vallejo la construye en su escritura (sobre todo en la poesia y en las cartas) para confrontarla con los textos iconograficos, en especial con la fotografia. Como punto de partida, se pretende discernir los alcances de la pobreza del autor tal como esta se registra en la biografia, es decir, como creciente intensificacion particularmente en los ultimos anos de su estadia europea. La hipotesis del ensayo consiste en sostener que Vallejo se esmera en construir esa imagen en las poses y el vestido registrados en las fotos y, de esa manera, situa su propia imagen al resguardo para impedir poner en riesgo la dignidad del escritor. Por eso el dandismo de Vallejo es un dandismo de la pobreza, y el uso del traje su expresion mas elocuente. ABSTRACTThis paper intends to understand the poet’s figure and how Vallejo built it in his writing (especially in poetry and letters) to compare it with the iconographic texts, especially photography. As a starting point, it is intended to discuss the author’s poverty scope reflected in his biography that is to say in increasing intensification, particularly in the last years of his European stay. The hypothesis of this paper is Vallejo’s endeavor to build an image through the poses and clothing in the photos and, thus, protecting his own image to prevent compromising his dignity. So the dandyism of Vallejo is a dandyism of poverty and the use of a suit is his most eloquent expression. Keywords: Vallejo, poet’s figure, dandyism, poverty, iconographic texts, photography, biography.
