La Regenta

La Regenta
Shown is the cover of the first edition of Leopoldo Alas y Ureña’s La Regenta (The Regent's Wife), printed in Barcelona in 1884. The illustration of a young man, seemingly plucked from a medieval book of love songs, has nothing to do with anything dealt with in this complex realist novel, the most naturalistic novel written in Spanish.
