EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Mexican history - Venustiano Carranza at the Queretaro Convention in December 1917. The image, taken by photographer Paul Thompson, showcases Carranza alongside his guards during the session. Carranza, who served as the Head of the Preconstitutional Government of Mexico from 1915 to 1917 and later became President of Mexico from 1917 to 1920, played a crucial role in shaping the country's future. In December 1917, he chaired the Constitutional Convention held in Queretaro that resulted in the creation of the Constitution of Mexico. The photograph provides a glimpse into this historic gathering where important decisions were made for Latin America. The serious expressions on Carranza's face and those around him reflect their dedication to establishing a strong foundation for their nation. Preserved within a private collection belonging to The Stapleton Collection, this image is part of "The Wind that Swept Mexico: The History of the Mexican Revolution of 1910-1942". It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation capturing an essential chapter in Mexican history. Through this photograph, we are reminded not only of Carranza's influential leadership but also how photography can immortalize moments that shape nations and impact generations to come.
