EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print, titled "Quito with weapon, 1865" by Ramon Salas, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Quito in the late 19th century. The artwork, housed at the Newberry Library in Chicago, Illinois, showcases a Quito man in profile holding a bloody weapon. Dressed in a white cotton garment and wearing a traditional hat, this portrait exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he captures every nuance of the man's expression and attire. The vibrant colours used bring life to the scene while also highlighting the significance of each element. The presence of the weapon adds an element of tension to the composition. It serves as a reminder that Quito was not only known for its beauty but also for its history marked by conflict and struggle. This juxtaposition between tranquility and violence creates an intriguing narrative within the artwork. Salas masterfully portrays this native American man with great respect and admiration for his culture. Through his artistry, he invites us to appreciate not only the individual depicted but also all indigenous peoples of America who have contributed immensely to their respective societies. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our vantage point in time, it serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece that allows us to connect with Quito's past inhabitants on a profound level.
