This art is based on a photography taken by the well-known pioneer French archaeologist Claude-Joseph Désiré Charnay (2 May 1828 – 24 October 1915) to Mexico City in 1858. This historical view is considered one of the first panoramic images made to that city using a camera. This image corresponds to the work entitled Album Fotografico Mexicano, edited and published by Julio Michaud in 1860. Charnay's name is a renowned earliest academic reference in Mesoamerica due to his explorations, giving an outstanding archaeological and historical perspective supported by images. This traveller is also considered being one of the few forerunners on the uses of photography to document archaeological discoveries. Indeed, many other scholars have followed his techniques across history in this region.
This beautiful art print created by hand is printed on 8x10 and 12x16 inches. If there is a specific size you would prefer, please contact us and we will do our best to meet your needs!
