Donahue-Wallace examines Gil as an artist, tracing his education, entry into professional life, appointment to the Mexico City mint, and foundation of the Royal Academy of the Three Noble Arts of San Carlos. She analyzes the archival and visual materials he left behind and, most importantly, she considers the ideas, philosophies, and principles of his era, those who espoused them, and how Gil responded to them. Although frustrated by resistance from the faculty and colleagues he brought to his academy, Gil would leave a lasting influence on the Mexican art scene as local artists continued to benefit from his legacy at the Mexican academy. 606 $aEnlightenment$zSpain 606 $aEngravers$zSpain$vBiography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnlightenment 615 0$aEngravers 676 $a737.092 700 $aDonahue-Wallace$b Kelly$f1968-$01098167 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154630003321 996 $aJerónimo Antonio Gil and the Idea of the Spanish Enlightenment$92894143 997 $aUNINA
