EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the quintessential charm of the Straw Cottage in Salamanca, Guanajuato, Mexico, between 1880 and 1900. The image, of unknown origin, showcases the simple yet elegant architecture of this historic dwelling, with its distinctive thatched roof made of straw, which was a common building material in rural Mexico during this period. The facade of the cottage is adorned with intricate details, including decorative elements on the walls and a wooden balcony, which add to its charm. Children play around the cottage, adding a sense of warmth and liveliness to the scene. The men, dressed in traditional Mexican clothing, work on the property, giving insight into the daily life of the community. The dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in image, taken by an unknown photographer, provides a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life was simpler and more connected to the land. The Straw Cottage, located in Salamanca, Guanajuato State, Mexico, is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of the region. Its preservation is a reminder of the cultural and historical significance of Mexico's rural communities during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph, held in the collections of the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to our understanding of this period in American and Mexican history.
