EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Native from the region of Heroica Veracruz, Mexico in the 19th century. Dressed in a traditional charro outfit consisting of a bolero jacket, chaps, trousers, and boots, this individual exudes pride and cultural heritage. The wide-brimmed hat adds an element of sophistication to their attire. The handcoloured woodcut by MG & Lisbet showcases the intricate details of this native's costume with vibrant colors that bring it to life. This image is part of Auguste Wahlens' renowned work "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples du Monde" (Manners, Customs and Costumes of all the People of the World), published in Brussels in 1845.

His dedication to documenting different cultures shines through this remarkable piece. This print serves as a visual journey into Mexican history and culture. It celebrates indigenous traditions while providing insight into their lifestyle and fashion choices.
