EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "El Cancionero Popular" (The Popular Songbook), is an exquisite example of 19th century Mexican art. Created by the renowned artist Manuel Manilla, this work of art dates back to an unspecified year and showcases a unique blend of animal, apparel, and caricature elements. The central focus of the print is a boar, intricately etched in relief engraving on yellow wove paper. The Eurasian wild pig, dressed in clothing reminiscent of traditional Mexican attire, wears a hat adorned with vibrant colors and intricate lettering. The boar stands proudly at a sports arena, surrounded by two men in fashionable clothing, engaging in a lively discussion. Manuel Manilla's masterful use of relief etching and illustration techniques brings the scene to life, with the text in Spanish adding an authentic touch to the artwork. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Mexico during the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the country's history, fashion, and music. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this rare and captivating print in its collection, showcasing it as a valuable addition to its extensive collection of prints and drawings. The intricate details, the use of color, and the whimsical nature of the artwork continue to captivate viewers and offer a window into the past.
