Un recorrido por la fotografía de Jean Laurent: el caso particular de la ciudad de Toledo

Jean Laurent's photography, particularly his depictions of Toledo, played a pivotal role in the 19th-century expansion of Spanish imagery across Europe. His work, showcased in catalogs from 1863 to 1896, captured monumental and artistic elements, contributing significantly to the romantic aesthetic movement prevalent at the time. Laurent's success as both an inventor and businessman allowed him to traverse Spain and Portugal, documenting cities like Toledo with a focus on their cultural and architectural heritage. This study highlights his influence in shaping European perceptions of Spanish landscapes and monuments through photography.
