EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century photomechanical print by William H. Jackson depicts a bustling pulque shop in the Tacubaya neighborhood of Mexico City, Mexico, between 1884 and 1900. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the daily life of this Central American country during the late 1800s. Pulque, a traditional Mexican alcoholic beverage made from the fermented sap of the maguey plant, was a popular drink among locals and tourists alike. The shop in the photograph appears to be a lively gathering place, with men and women of various social classes, as well as children, gathered around the shop front. The boys in the image seem particularly intrigued by the scene, peering in at the shop with curious expressions. The shop's interior is dimly lit, with the warm glow of oil lamps casting an inviting, cozy atmosphere. The shopkeeper, dressed in traditional Mexican attire, stands behind the counter, serving customers with a friendly smile. The shop's walls are adorned with colorful posters and signs, adding to the vibrant and lively atmosphere. This photograph, titled "Mexico, a pulque shop, Tacubaya," is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Mexico and the diverse social dynamics of the time. It offers a unique perspective on the daily life of a neighborhood in Mexico City during the 19th century and is a fascinating addition to any collection of historical or art photography.
