EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene in the village of El Bordo, nestled in the picturesque Valley of the Patia, Colombia. After Sunday Mass, as the sun bathes the landscape in warm golden hues, the men gather to engage in playful activities while the women prepare for breakfast. Dressed in long cotton dresses with open bodices that showcase their traditional attire, the women exude grace and elegance. Their vibrant clothing reflects their rich cultural heritage and adds a splash of color to this idyllic setting. In the foreground of this image is an engraving by Sirouy depicting unique footwear worn by locals known as "soques particuleres". These distinctive shoes are intricately designed and serve as a symbol of regional identity. The photograph transports us back to 1875-1876 when French traveler E. Andre embarked on a mission commissioned by his government. His experiences were later chronicled in "L'Amerique Equinoxiale" and illustrated with engravings like this one. Leonard de Selva skillfully captured this moment from history through his lens, preserving it for future generations to appreciate. The Selva Collection proudly presents this remarkable piece that encapsulates both cultural significance and artistic beauty.
