D (escribiendo) miradas: Spanish Silver Age Writers Captured by Alfonso Sánchez Portela's Photography

This exhibition showcases 44 photographs by Alfonso Sánchez Portela, focusing on his relationship with writers of the 'Silver Age' of Spanish literature (early 20th century). It features portraits of prominent literary figures from the generations of '98, '14, and '27, including well-known names and lesser-known but significant individuals.

Consisting of photographs from an exhibition at the Museo Casa de Cervantes in Valladolid, 'D (escribiendo) miradas. "La edad de plata vista por Alfonso"' presents the work of Alfonso Sánchez Portela (1902-1990), a pivotal figure in 20th-century Spanish photography. His camera documented significant moments in contemporary Spanish history and captured influential figures from politics, academia, and the arts. This exhibition specifically highlights his connection to the writers of the 'Silver Age' (the first third of the 20th century), a period marked by the convergence of the '98, '14, and '27 literary generations. The collection features 44 photographs, including well-known portraits of writers like Alberti, García Lorca, and Antonio Machado, as well as less widely recognized but notable literary figures such as María Lejárraga, Cipriano de Rivas Cherif, and Francisco Villaespesa. The photographer's extensive archive, comprising over one hundred thousand negatives, was acquired by the Ministry of Culture and is preserved in the General Archive of the Administration (AGA) in Alcalá de Henares.
