This text proposes to analyze the images of the four muses on the front page of the journal El Montañés (1897) by reviewing, in the first place, their consideration as a muses according to classicals and iconographical sources, then it approaches the intellectual context of the periodical publication, especially the “gramaticalista esthetic” from Miguel Antonio Caro, the concern about the consolidation of the antioqueña literature and the relevance of Tomás Carrasquilla. Two comprehensions of the figure of the muses are founded: one gramaticalista and another montañesa, associated to two ways of comprehend the literature in the cultural context of the 19th century.
