EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned Mexican artist, Adolfo Best-Maugard (1891-1965), captured in an oil on canvas masterpiece by none other than Diego Rivera in 1913. Best-Maugard, a distinguished figure with a well-groomed moustache, stands confidently in a park setting wearing an elegant overcoat and holding a cane. The early 20th-century fashion adds to the charm of this image. The background reveals a bustling fairground atmosphere with a Ferris wheel towering above, hinting at the vibrant energy of Mexico during that time period. Rivera's skillful brushstrokes bring out the fine details of Best-Maugard's features while also capturing the essence of social realism prevalent in modern art. Best known for his contributions to Mesoamerican art and painting techniques, Adolfo Best-Maugard was instrumental in reviving indigenous artistic traditions within Latin America. This photograph immortalizes him as one of Mexico's most celebrated painters. This remarkable piece is part of The Granger Collection based in New York City, offering us an opportunity to appreciate not only the talent behind this artwork but also its historical significance within Mexican culture.
