EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in Mexican history, showcasing Agustin de Iturbide (1783-1824), a renowned soldier and key figure in the country's struggle for independence. Standing on a balcony, Iturbide delivers an impassioned speech to an eager crowd below, accepting their proposal to become the emperor of Mexico. Painted by an unknown Mexican artist around 1822, this oil painting exudes both historical significance and artistic finesse. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life the atmosphere of early 19th-century Mexico, as citizens rally together in support of their newfound freedom. Iturbide's role as a leader during the Mexican War of Independence is highlighted here, symbolizing his commitment to uniting the nation under one rule. Known for his three guarantees - religion, independence, and unity - he sought to establish stability and prosperity for his people. The image showcases not only Iturbide's charisma but also the power of public demonstration during this transformative period in Latin American history. As viewers gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork from Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection, they are transported back in time to witness firsthand the fervor that fueled Mexico's fight for autonomy. Whether displayed in homes or educational institutions alike, this print serves as a poignant reminder of bravery and determination that shaped modern-day Mexico.
