Cuban revolutionary (1932-1959), a key figure of the Cuban Revolution, along with Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, Raúl Castro, and Huber Matos. On October 28, 1959, Camilo’s Cessna 310 disappeared over the ocean during a night flight from Camagüey to Havana. The country ceased work as an immediate search was called which lasted several days, but no plane could be found. By November the search was called off and Cienfuegos was presumed lost. He quickly became a new martyr for the Cuban revolution. His close friend and fellow martyr Che Guevara named his son Camilo after Cienfuego. Uncommon vintage glossy 3.5 x 5.5 portrait, signed in blue fountain pen. In fine condition, with light silvering to darker areas and some scattered surface scratches. RRAuction COA.
