Gustavo Doré is considered one of the great universal illustrators. Throughout his life he made a very extensive work highlighting especially the work done to illustrate the Bible, the Quixote and the Divine Comedy. In 1862 he embarked on a trip through Spain accompanied by hispanist Charles Davillier. One of his objectives was to be inspired to carry out his work on Don Quixote, but as a result of the trip, several deliveries were published for the magazine Le Tour du Monde, between 1862 and 1873 and, finally, a book, entitled L'Espagne, published in 1874. But what is surprising in this work, and has not been well studied so far, is that Doré, whose work was characterized by an overflow-wing imagination, used numerous photographs for the realization of between 15 and 20% of the engravings that illustrated the magazine and the book.
