- Buenos Aires - Mercado de Abasto - Mercado de Abasto has three levels with approximately 250 stores. The floors are interconnected by escalators and elevators - no kidding. One might suffer vertigo experiencing this escalator ride.

Orion in the evening sky.

The other night, I used my Nikon Z7-II to capture the constellation Orion in the evening sky. Although an amazing camera, when fitted with the Z-series 24-70mm lens, this picture making combination suffers from vignetting when used at the widest aperture. I needed an 4.0 aperture to picture the starry sky while keeping my total exposure time to just 30 seconds, when set at ISO 200. To minimize…

2021 - Mexico City - 65 - Cathedral of San Buenaventura in Cuautitlán by Ted McGrath Via Flickr: The Nave of Cuautitlán St. Bonaventure Cathedral has a unique altar piece with art work and gilded framing. The altar 4 pieces and possibly 4 more on the nave walls are all or not works by Flemish artist Marten de Vos. Some research says there are 3 de Vos paintings here. Apparently only one is signed by de Vos, a 1581 panel depicting St. Michael the Archangel hanging here since the sixteenth century. I think its the one upper right side. Marten de Vos was one of the most prolific and influential painters and print designers in Antwerp in the second half of the sixteenth century. In Mexico there are 8 paintings that are attributed to the artist, the only signed being the one placed in the altarpiece of the Cathedral of San Buenaventura in Cuautitlán. De Vos did not cross the Atlantic to the Spanish colonies unlike some of his contemporaries but many prints and several paintings did make the voyage and had a huge impact on the iconography as well as techniques of Colonial painting in the Americas.

We commit indiscretions, and omit our sins from sight, in a world of intangibles, too many things seem right No hand to scribe of sinking sickness I have seen, no face to judge until you’ve been the monster I have been, to hunger is noble, where beauty is silent sleep, my hunger is noble, but my pain is driven deep. -----------------------------------------------------------------

Your cruelty and consequence cannot eliminate this relevance Your selfishness, your hatefulness cannot take away my innocence from me

Grand Splendid  Via Flickr: Our next stop on day 4 was a visit to BA's amazing bookstore, El Ateneo Grand Splendid. Here is 2 of 6 bookstore photos. Buenos Aires is among the cities with the highest number of bookstores per person in the world, with more than 700 brick-and-mortar establishments. This historic, palatial theater is now one of the world’s finest bookstores. In 2019, it was named the "world's most beautiful bookstore" by National Geographic. Situated on Santa Fe Avenue in Recoleta, the building was designed by architects Peró and Torres Armengol for impresario Max Glücksmann (1875-1946), and opened as a theatre called Teatro Gran Splendid in May 1919. In 1929, the theater underwent its first transformation to become a cinema, with the distinction of being the first in Buenos Aires to show sound film. February 2000 the ornate former theatre was leased by Grupo Ilhsa, renovated and converted into a book and music shop. Chairs are provided throughout the building, including the still-intact theatre loges, where customers can dip into books before purchase. There is a café in what was once the stage. The ceiling, the ornate carvings, the crimson stage curtains, the auditorium lighting and many architectural details remain. Despite the changes, the building still retains the feeling of the grand theatre it once was. With each incarnation since its inception in 1919—first as a performing arts theatre, then as a cinema, and now a bookstore—The Grand Splendid has proven itself befitting of its majestic title. Architect Fernando Manzone oversaw the building’s most recent conversion into the El Ateneo bookstore and music shop. . Permission to use Photo: . 21 December, 2021. . Hello Ted, I’m working on an article for a magazine and I wanted to inquire about using some of your photos of El Ateneo Grand Splendid I found on Flickr. The magazine is an arts journal and is a non-profit organization. All credit for the photos will be given to you. I’d like to use the close up of the balcony, the overall shot of the bookstore that is focused on the stage-turned-café, and the shot of the bookstore’s different levels that looks to be taken from the second level. Please let me know what you think as soon as possible. Thank you, Madison Arsenault House of Cadmus
