Présentation de l'éditeur
One circumstance must be observed by all who travel in Mexican territory. There is not one human being or passing object to be seen that is not in itself a picture, or which would not form a good subject for the pencil. The Indian women, with thenplaited hair, and little children slung to their backs, their large straw hats, and petticoats of two colors the long strings of arrieros with their loaded mules, and swarthy, wild-looking faces the chance horseman who passes with his sarape of many colors, his high ornamented saddle, Mexican hat, silver stirrups, and leathern boots, this is picturesque. Salvator Rosa and Hogarth might have travelled here to advantage, hand-in-hand ;S alvator for the sublime, and Hogarth taking him up where the sublime became the ridiculous. From Life in Mexico, by Madame Cde laB
