| Note: |
Hugo Brehme: A major early twentieth century Mexican
photographer, studied his art in his native Germany. Around the turn of
the century he began publishing photographs of both Germany and North
Africa. Several years later he traveled through parts of South America,
Guatemala and Salvador. He first arrived in Mexico in 1905. As early as
1912, Brehme established a studio in Mexico City. |
| |
During the following years, Brehme's photographs of Mexico
became known worldwide, particularly his black and white and sepia toned
postcards and through the publication of his books. His larger and more
valuable photographs (such as this original example) were sometimes hand
tinted in colors and signed by him in pencil. Hugo Brehme's famous books
include, "Mexico Pintoresco" (1923), "Picturesque Mexico" (1925) and "Pueblos
y Paisajes de Mexico" (1932). |

Hugo Brehme is today acknowledged as an early Mexican master
of landscape, architectural and portrait photography. Through his studios
in Mexico City he influenced an entire generation of Mexican photographers,
most notably Manuel Alvarez Bravo. |
