EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 1828 print captures the entrance to the historic city of Guanajuato, Mexico, specifically the Canada de Marfil, or "Silver Canal," which served as the primary entrance to the city during the colonial era. The image offers a glimpse into Mexico's rich history, showcasing the architectural beauty and engineering marvels of the time. Located in the central Mexican state of Guanajuato, the city of Guanajuato was founded in 1554 and quickly became a significant center for silver mining. The Canada de Marfil, translated to "White Canal" in English, was an essential waterway that facilitated the transportation of silver and other resources from the mines to the port of San Miguel de Allende for export. The entrance to the Canada de Marfil is depicted in this print as a grand archway, adorned with intricate stonework and a distinctive clock tower. The arched gateway leads to a narrow, winding road that descends into the heart of the city, reflecting the topography of the rugged terrain. The print also reveals the bustling activity of the city, with horse-drawn carriages and people moving about, further emphasizing the importance of Guanajuato as a thriving commercial and cultural hub during the 19th century. This print is a testament to the enduring allure of Mexico's colonial past and the fascinating history of Guanajuato. It invites us to explore the stories and secrets that lie within the walls of this enchanting city, which continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
