Ilustrísimos: Panorama of Children's and Young Adult Illustration in Spain is a publication and exhibition catalogue.
Edited by the Ministry of Culture for the Bologna Children's Book Fair 2005 (where Spain was the Guest of Honour country), this volume brings together the work of prominent Spanish illustrators.
Subsequently, the Instituto Cervantes used this same exhibition to showcase the value of Spanish illustration at international fairs, such as the one in Beijing in 2009. In total, the exhibition was shown in five countries: Italy, Spain, Sweden, China, and Algeria.
