Un Bosquejo de la Historia en Mexico

Catalogue of an exhibition organized within the framework of the celebrations for the Bicentennial of the Independence and the Centennial of the Revolution that explore how the national heroes were portrayed in art in the early 19th century. An interesting inclusion is the iconography of national heroes in relation to the sculptures of classic antiquity. The exhibition includes close to 110 pieces including sculptures, paintings, prints, photography, books, manuscripts and some magazines largely produced in the 19th Century in México and Europe.

Avoids a chronological account giving the reader instead a methodical analysis of the institutional, social, and economic organization of the order.
