EDITORS COMMENTS
Hacienda Peotillos, San Luis Potosi, Mexico (between 1880 and 1897) - This photograph, captured by American photographer William H. Jackson, offers a glimpse into the colonial past of Mexico during the late 19th century. The image depicts the grand Hacienda Peotillos, a sprawling ranch estate located in the central region of San Luis Potosi. The hacienda, with its impressive architecture and lush surroundings, served as a symbol of wealth and power during the era of colonialism. In the foreground, two horses and a donkey are tethered to a hitching post, while in the background, a group of people can be seen gathered in the plaza, likely engaged in daily activities or socializing. The dry plate negative technique used by Jackson captures the intricate details of the hacienda's architecture, from the ornate windows and balconies to the red-tiled roofs and wrought-iron railings. The photograph is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Mexico during this period, a time when the country was under the influence of European colonial powers and the United States was beginning to assert its presence in the region. The image has been preserved in the collections of the Library of Congress, a reminder of the past and a valuable resource for scholars and historians studying the colonial period in Mexico and Central America. William H. Jackson (1843-1942) was a prolific American photographer, known for his documentation of the American West and his travels abroad. This photograph of Hacienda Peotillos is a rare and fascinating glimpse into the colonial past of Mexico, a time of change and transformation that continues to shape the region's history and identity.
