Ángel Hilario García de Jalón Hueto (1898-1976), better known as Jalón Angel, was one of the most prominent figures in portrait photography in Spain during his 50-year professional career. This photographer, who had a great social and human impact, began his initial training in Logroño and perfected it in the first decade of the 20th century, first in Lyon and then in Paris. In 1926, he settled in Zaragoza, where he combined his more personal and creative photography, specialising in travel and urban and natural landscapes, with his portrait work.
