Juan Crisostomo Estrada - Taxco Mexico 1950's - Photographs
Juan Crisostomo Estrada Juan Crisostomos EstradaPlease enjoy these older Semana Santa photographs by the noted Tasqueño artist and photographer Juan Crisostomos Estrada who has artistically rendered over 50 years of Taxco life. These photos were taken between 1950 and 1958 shortly after the Easter processions became a tradition in Taxco. Each year he has lettered the 'Sentencia de Jesus'. I am struck by the timelessness of the poses and the close similarities to my photographs taken during Semana Santa of 2002 and 2004.
