Abstract


The poetical image reported to the visited places is an artistic device that makes travel books a «literary piece of work». In this article I offer an anthology of the images about Andalucía given by their visitors in the XIXth Century. The most common image is about the bipolarity North/ South, but there are and we can read many other images: the brilliant metaphors used to described Cádiz as a «sea-shell» or a «ship» and specially for describing the charm of women there.
