EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to early 20th century Mexico, specifically Xochimilco, where the vibrant beauty of a blossoming chinampa is captured. The image, taken by Cecile Seler-Sachs in the 1920s, showcases the enchanting allure of this Mexican landscape. Xochimilco, known for its network of canals and floating gardens called chinampas, has long been celebrated for its natural splendor. In this illustration from Mexiko, Baukunst, Landschaft, Volksleben (Ernest Wasmuth), Seler-Sachs skillfully brings forth the essence of Xochimilco's charm through her gravure printed photograph. The monochrome palette adds a timeless quality to the scene as it transports us to an era gone by. The intricate details of each flower on the flourishing chinampa are beautifully accentuated against the contrasting dark background. This artistic choice allows our senses to fully appreciate every petal and leaf that grace this picturesque setting. As we gaze upon this historic image from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we cannot help but be captivated by its historical significance. It serves as a reminder of Mexico's rich cultural heritage and offers us a glimpse into an era when nature was revered and celebrated with great artistry. Whether you are drawn to history or simply appreciate fine photography art, this print will undoubtedly evoke a sense of wonderment within you.
