Costumbres Neo-Granadinas
RAMÓN TORRES-MÉNDEZ, 1851
[TORRES-MÉNDEZ, Ramón (1809-1885). Costumbres Neo-Granadinas. Bogota: Martinez Herms., 1851.]
Bogotá first printings of colorful Colombian costumbrista plates. Torres-Méndez was the most prolific of 19th-century Colombian painters in the popular costumbrista tradition. After the wars of liberation, the name República de Nueva Granada (“Republic of New Granada”) was adopted by Colombia in the period 1830–1858. These Bogotá printings are quite rare. Only a handful of smaller collections or individual plates appear in RBH or OCLC. Not in Colas or Lipperheide. See E. Sanchez, Ramon Torres Mendez, Pintor de la Nueva Granada, 1987.
12 hand-colored duotone lithographed plates (270 x 337mm) by Carmelo Fernandéz (4) and Martinez i Hermanos (12), printed within gilt frames and variously captioned in gilt and black, a few signed by the artist in the plate (only, a partial series, some minor marginal staining, two pls. with marginal tears). Loose in modern solander case.
