This 1868 broadside by Antonio Bosch, titled "Vida de Macricias Vulgo Cerilla N° 72" (Life of Macricias, Also Known as Cerilla No. 72), tells the story of a thin man named Mr. Thin through 48 sequential scenes. Each panel, framed in a grid-like format, is filled with intricate detail, depicting Mr. Thin's daily life and adventures in a graphic novel-like manner. This artwork is a prime example of early graphic narratives and provides a fascinating glimpse into the social and cultural contexts of 19th-century Spain.
