EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving, entitled "Jacinto Abarguer de Rey," is an exquisite example of 19th-century illustration art. Created by the skilled hand of Spanish engraver A. Perea, this engraving was published in "La Ilustracion Espanola y Americana," a prestigious Spanish and American weekly magazine, in the year 1870. The subject of this portrait is Jacinto Abarguer de Rey, a Cuban military figure who gained prominence during the late 19th century. Abarguer de Rey is depicted in full military uniform, complete with a distinctive mustache, which was a common fashion among men of the era. He is shown wearing the uniform of a Sublieutenant in the Spanish army, indicating his rank at the time this portrait was taken. Abarguer de Rey's expression is serious and determined, reflecting the intensity and dedication required of a military leader. His gaze is fixed, as if he is preparing for battle or leading his troops into combat. The background of the engraving is simple, with a camp scene depicted in the distance, suggesting that the portrait was taken during military training or camp life. This engraving is a testament to the rich history of the Spanish and American military connection, particularly in the context of Cuba. The Spanish-American War, which took place from 1898 to 1899, saw the involvement of both Spanish and American forces in the Caribbean island. Abarguer de Rey's portrait offers a glimpse into the lives of the men who served during this period, and the complex political and military dynamics that shaped the region. Overall, this beautifully colored engraving is a valuable historical artifact, offering insights into the people, fashion, and military culture of the 19th century. Its intricate details and vivid colors bring the past to life, making it a must-have for any collection focused on Spanish and American history, military history, or 19th-century illustration art.
