ilustración historiada
La tapa de la revista Das Kunstwerk de enero de 1966 fue ilustrada con Muestra tu rostro (1964-1965), obra en la cual la cara se asemeja a una máscara de cierta complejidad. Podría tratarse de un personaje de ciencia ficción o de ilustración historiada, donde el detalle de los ojos aparece como enigmático.
I am wondering if "illustración historiada" might mean coming book here...
Thanks

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

gaudy, comic-strip illustration
Das Kunstwerk 1966 magazine weblink in the Discussion Entries suggests figurative art with satirical caricatures 'modelled' on 'Nazi-stigmatised degenerate' German Expressionist Dada artists like Georg Grosz, Ottox Dix and Max Beckmann and that some of us had earnestly and gravely studied at English uni. on 'novel' French, Spanish & German Humour & Satire Courses.
historiada : gaudy; ornate, Simon & Schuster

: I didn't check the meaning of 'historiada'. I assumed it had something to do with 'historia'. Neither had I realised that 'coming' was a typo for 'comic'.

A comic strip is a sequence of cartoons, arranged in interrelated panels to display brief humor or form a narrative, often serialized, with text in balloons and captions. Traditionally, throughout the 20th and into the 21st century, these have been published in newspapers and magazines, with daily horizontal strips printed in black-and-white in newspapers, while Sunday papers offered longer sequences in special color comics sections. With the advent of the internet, online comic strips began to appear as webcomics.
Most strips are written and drawn by a comics artist, known as a cartoonist. As the word "comic" implies, strips are frequently humorous. Examples of these gag-a-day strips are Blondie, Bringing Up Father, Marmaduke, and Pearls Before Swine. In the late 1920s, comic strips expanded from their mirthful origins to feature adventure stories, as seen in Popeye, Captain Easy, Buck Rogers, Tarzan, and Terry and the Pirates. In the 1940s, soap-opera-continuity strips such as Judge Parker and Mary Worth gained popularity. Because "comic" strips are not always funny, cartoonist Will Eisner has suggested that sequential art would be a better genre-neutral name.

In comics studies, sequential art is a term proposed by comics artist Will Eisner to describe art forms that use images deployed in a specific order for the purpose of graphic storytelling (i.e., narration of graphic stories) or conveying information. The best-known example of sequential art is comics.

THE EVOLUTION OF SEQUENTIAL ART
While The comic strip may be the most recognisable form of sequential art in today’s world, this art form actually predates comics by millennia. In fact, the human race has been using visuals to convey information or ‘stories’ long before the invention of the written word. Let’s take a brief look at the evolution of sequential art and its various forms throughout history.

Science fiction or sequential art/comic strip character might work

Perhaps she thought 'historiada' had something to do with illustrated history, not 'illustrated story'. Thank you, AllegroTrans :-)

I think AMM is on the right track. I didn't know that 'historiada' means 'muy recargado de adornos o colores mal combinados'.
