EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the cover of the Gazette of Madrid, a public journal published in the 18th century with the date of Tuesday, 1st March, 1791. The Gazette of Madrid was a significant publication during the Spanish Enlightenment, serving as the primary source of information for the Spanish monarchy and the public. Founded in 1717, the Gazette underwent several transformations throughout the century, eventually becoming a daily publication in 1765. The cover of this particular issue, number 17, displays the royal crest of Spain at the top, symbolizing the official endorsement and patronage of the Spanish monarchy. The title, "Gaceta de Madrid," is prominently displayed in elegant script, with the subtitle, "Gazeta de España, y de la América," indicating its scope of coverage, which extended to Spain and its American colonies. The Gazette of Madrid was an essential source of legal notices, official announcements, and news from both Spain and its territories. Its publication was a testament to the growing importance of the press in disseminating information and shaping public opinion during the late 18th century. This print serves as a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of Spanish journalism and the role it played in recording and reporting the events of the time.
