1. Title: "Fernando Calderón Collantes (1811-1890) - The Distinguished Asturian Statesman and Military Man" This colored engraving showcases Fernando Calderón Collantes (1811-1890), a prominent Spanish politician and the 1st Marquis of Reinosa. Born in the Cantabrian region of Spain, Calderón Collantes rose to prominence during the 19th century, serving his country in various capacities, both militarily and politically. The image portrays Calderón Collantes in a formal seated pose, adorned with various decorations and medals signifying his military and political achievements. He wears an elegant sash, the insignia of his marquessate, and a decorative collar, symbolizing his noble status. His sideburns, a common fashion trend during the late 1800s, frame his stern yet thoughtful expression. Calderón Collantes' military career began during the Carlist Wars, where he gained recognition for his bravery and strategic prowess. Later, he entered politics, serving as a Minister of State and a Senator in the Spanish Cortes. His dedication to public service earned him numerous awards and accolades, including the Grand Cross of the Order of Charles III and the Order of Isabel la Católica. The engraving, published in "The Spanish and American Illustration" in 1890, captures the essence of a man who dedicated his life to serving his country and community. Calderón Collantes' legacy continues to inspire generations, as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the Spanish people and their commitment to their nation.
