This chromolitho print from the 19th century showcases a vibrant scene of Indians selling tuberoses in Mexico. The European School artist beautifully captures the essence of street trading, as women donned in traditional costumes skillfully navigate through a bustling market. Their baskets overflow with fragrant flowers, adding an enchanting aroma to the air. The educational aspect of this artwork is evident, as it was part of a series on fragrant flowers published on Liebig cards during that era. These cards aimed to educate and entertain viewers about various subjects, and this particular piece focuses on the beauty and allure of tuberoses. The composition transports us to a lively Mexican park where sellers gather around a fountain. The colors are vividly rendered, showcasing the vibrancy of their surroundings. Each detail is meticulously depicted, from the intricate patterns on their garments to the expressions on their faces. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also provides insight into cultural traditions and practices prevalent at that time.
