    Don't see anything with the artist's name but are you sure it isn't Valentín Carderera? He worked in the 19th century as did the lithographer J.J. Martínez so not going to be terribly old.

    Says work based on a period painting. The only one I could find similar is this one which is in the Prado.

    Still not sure exactly what you have. Is it a separate engraving or a book plate? What does Zenith Radio have to do with it? What is the condition? (Impossible to tell from your photographs.)

    The don Juan picture seems to be an etching or engraving
