Abraham Valdelomar

Valdelomar c. 1910 Pedro Abraham Valdelomar Pinto (April 27, 1888 – November 3, 1919) was a Peruvian narrator, poet, journalist, essayist, and dramatist. He is considered the founder of the avant-garde in Peru, although he is more often classified as a ''posmodernista''. He founded the literary journal ''Colónida'' and led the movement of the same name, which marked a shift from academicism to a more introspective and provincial literature. Along with Julio Ramón Ribeyro, he is widely regarded as one of the most important short story writers in Peruvian history.

Valdelomar is best known for his "criollo" stories, most notably "El Caballero Carmelo" (The Knight Carmelo), and for his poetry, including the famous sonnet "Tristitia". His image has been featured on the S/ 50 banknote since its introduction in 1991. Provided by Wikipedia
