EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Evaristo Jose Fernandez San Miguel y Valledor (1785-1862): A Distinguished Figure of Asturian History" This portrait depicts Evaristo Jose Fernandez San Miguel y Valledor (1785-1862), a prominent Spanish military officer, nobleman, politician, and historian from Asturias. Born in the northern region of Spain, San Miguel y Valledor rose to prominence during the 19th century, leaving an indelible mark on Spanish history. The Duke of San Miguel, as he was titled, is shown in this detail from a lithograph published in the "Cronica General de Espana: Historia Ilustrada y Descriptiva de sus Provincias. Asturias y Leon" in 1867. The engraving, created by Llanta, captures the essence of San Miguel y Valledor's distinguished character. His piercing gaze, framed by a well-groomed goatee, conveys a sense of determination and intelligence. San Miguel y Valledor's military career was marked by numerous decorations and accomplishments. He served in the Peninsular War against Napoleon's forces, playing a crucial role in the defense of his homeland. His political and noble status were also significant, as he held various positions within the Spanish government and was a respected figure in Asturian society. As a historian, San Miguel y Valledor contributed to the documentation and preservation of Spanish history. His works provide valuable insights into the social, political, and cultural landscape of 19th-century Spain, particularly in the regions of Asturias and Leon. This portrait, therefore, not only captures the likeness of a remarkable individual but also serves as a testament to his multifaceted contributions to Spanish history.
