Sedulously researched. . . . The reader whose understanding of the Spanish Enlightenment is already well formed (and overlaps with Donahue-Wallace's) will find in the book a rich catalogue of vignettes of Enlightenment reform.--Elsa Costa, The Latin Americanist
The seven chapters of Kelly Donahue-Wallace's profusely illustrated and thoroughly documented study present the most comprehensive and up-to-date biography of Jerónimo Antonio Gil, a key figure in the artistic and cultural milieu of the Hispanic Enlightenment.--Luis J. Gordo-Peláez, Bulletin of the Comediantes

Gordo-Peláez, Bulletin of the Comediantes
Donahue-Wallace brings her formidable expertise in print history and theory to bear on the text. . . . The book is remarkable in its interweaving of conceptions of the Spanish Enlightenment and the practical realities faced by artists in this period through the example of Gil's life and career.--Colonial Latin American Review
The book is extremely well‐researched from a wide range of archives in both Spain and Mexico.--Bulletin of Latin American Research
