Fotógrafo Nuño. Fotografía de León. Paisanos. Vintage photo Spain León. farmers on a donkey
Esta foto pertenece al Archivo de la Dirección General de Turismo. Estas fotos recogen tanto pueblos, como monumentos, como gente en el presente caso.
En esta foto vemos a unos paisanos de la zona montañosa de León que, para sus labores, utilizan un mulo dado lo escarpado del terrreno. Como es típico en zonas de montaña van abrigados, a pesar de que hace sol, e incluso uno de ellos lleva el paraguas . Este paraguas sirve tanto para protegerse de la lluvia como del sol.

These photos of Spain include both monuments as people with special emphasis on country work and the sea labours when they were being replaced by more modern industrial processes.
The general size of these photographs of the Directorate General of Tourism is 18x24 cm or 20x26 cm. They are usually stapled to a card which states the place, date and photographer who does it, sometimes even include some sort of comment.
These photographs of the Directorate General of Tourism as I used for the promotion of Spain and therefore may have been used for both posters to books to be supplied directly to individuals or institutions.
Some of the noted photographers who made these pictures of the Directorate General of Tourism are:
Noted, finally, that his tourist status does not remove the quality of the artwork of the photos, and ethnographic character and crafts people today no longer has not been sufficiently studied.

Noted, finally, that his tourist status does not remove the quality of the artwork of the photos, and ethnographic character and crafts people today no longer has not been sufficiently studied.
Perhaps
this is due to the image we have of these photos as "Official Spain"
makes us ignore its value, simply, artistic, and coincide in time with
the early work of foreign photographers showed another image of Spain from 1950 (remember the story of E. Smith for Life magazine)
Archive of the Directorate General of Tourism is located in Alcalá de Henares in the Archives of the Administration.
