EDITORS COMMENTS
"VELASCO: THE TRAIN, 1897. The Train, in the shadow of the volcano El Citlaltepetl, in southern Mexico. Oil on canvas by José María Velasco, 1897. This artwork by José María Velasco takes us back to a time when steam locomotives traversed the picturesque landscapes of southern Mexico. In this painting titled "The Train". Velasco skillfully captures the juxtaposition between man-made industrialization and the raw beauty of nature. Set against the majestic backdrop of El Citlaltepetl, one of Mexico's most prominent volcanoes, we witness a train chugging along its tracks amidst lush greenery and rolling hills. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he meticulously portrays every aspect of this scene - from the billowing smoke emerging from the coal-powered engine to the intricate patterns on each carriage. Velasco's masterpiece not only showcases his technical prowess but also serves as a testament to Mexico's rich cultural heritage. By incorporating elements such as indigenous Mesoamerican motifs and Latin American landscape traditions into his work, he creates a harmonious blend that celebrates both history and natural beauty. As we gaze upon this painting, we are transported back in time to an era where trains symbolized progress and connectivity while coexisting with untouched wilderness. Through Velasco's brushstrokes, we can almost hear the rhythmic chugging of wheels on tracks and feel a sense of awe at nature's grandeur. This print from
