Tinted, 1930-1939

Three hand-colored 10x13-inch photographic prints, which correspond to postcards in the Arco Iris art card series.

Márquez enlarged, hand-tinted and marketed many of his prints as art photographs, and it was these hand-tinted images that were reproduced for the postcards series.  Márquez also collected native crafts as props, and he assembled and photographed them as still lifes.
