"Vista del Palacio Nacional de México: después de la memorable jornada del 15 al 27 Julio de 1840"
Description:
This lithograph depicts a side of the National Palace, which is crumbling after the Federalist revolt of July 1840. A wall has nearly fallen away completely, with a mangled balcony railing. A pair of bystanding soldiers are positioned near the wall, as well as several civilians that appear to be looking onward at it calmly. One of the soldiers is interacting with a civilian, with his hand extended towards the civilian's back. —— Esta litografía representa un lado del Palacio Nacional, que se derrumba después de la revuelta federalista de julio de 1840. Una pared casi se ha derrumbado por completo, con una baranda de balcón destrozada. Un par de soldados transeúntes se colocan cerca del muro, así como varios civiles que parecen mirar la destrucción con calma. Uno de los soldados está interactuando con un civil, con su mano extendida hacia su espalda.
