EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white albumen print, titled "Old Mission Church, Zuni Pueblo, N. M. View from the Plaza" takes us back to 1873 in New Mexico. Captured by the talented photographer Tim O'Sullivan as part of his exploration project "Geographical & Geological Explorations & Surveys West of the 100th Meridian" this image showcases a remarkable architectural gem. The Old Mission Church stands proudly amidst its adobe surroundings, a testament to both American Indian heritage and Christianity's influence on the indigenous population. Its mud brick structure is adorned with balconies and a belfry housing several bells that have witnessed countless moments of devotion throughout history. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, Lieutenant George Montague Wheeler's expedition comes to mind - an endeavor aimed at documenting and understanding the geography and geology of these lands. This photograph serves as a visual record of their journey through uncharted territories. In this frame, we see a lone man standing near the church entrance, perhaps contemplating its significance or marveling at its beauty. His presence reminds us that behind every piece of art lies human connection - someone who has experienced it firsthand. Today, housed within an art institute in Chicago, this print continues to captivate viewers with its historical value and artistic merit. It transports us back to an era when cultures collided and traditions merged against breathtaking landscapes – forever etching their mark on America's rich tapestry.
