# El Cojo Ilustrado no. 350 front page: General Cipriano Castro, 'Restaurador de Venezuela', 1906

Front page of the Caracas illustrated fortnightly El Cojo Ilustrado, 15 July 1906: the whole cover is one formal portrait of General Cipriano Castro in a ruled frame, captioned with the honorific titles 'Restaurador de Venezuela y Presidente Constitucional de la República'. The tell is the virtue-laden title 'Restaurador' (restorer), which stands in place of any news on the cover.
