EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to Mexico City in 1865, showcasing the remarkable work of Louis Falconnet. The albumen print captures two stunning photographs of iconic buildings in Mexico City, each telling a unique story. The first image depicts the bustling portales, where merchants and traders gather under its grand arches. The architecture is exquisite, with intricate details that reflect the rich history and culture of this vibrant city. As we move our gaze to the second photograph, we are greeted by the magnificent Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe. Its towering presence commands attention as it stands proudly on the site where an apparition took place. What makes this photo even more intriguing is the ghostly image of Virgen de Guadalupe that appears between these two architectural marvels. It serves as a reminder of Mexico's deep-rooted religious beliefs and devotion to their patron saint. Louis Falconnet's skilled craftsmanship shines through in every detail captured within these images. The mount below them bears inscriptions providing essential information about each scene. As we admire this historical treasure from over a century ago, let us appreciate how photography allows us to travel through time and witness moments frozen forever. This print not only showcases Mexico City's beauty but also invites contemplation on its cultural heritage and spiritual significance.
