"Vida del Carlista Don Ramon Cabrera", a wood-engraved broadside created in 1860 by Spanish artist José Noguera, depicts 48 scenes from the life of Carlist General Ramon Cabrera y Griñó. The artwork, housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, uses a sequential narrative format, each scene accompanied by a short caption in Spanish, to recount key moments from Cabrera's military career during the First Carlist War. The broadside provides valuable insight into 19th-century Spanish history and popular visual culture.
