Casa Talavera, UACM, Mexico City

Picture taken on 2 February 2010

Actually one of the branchs of the Mexico City University, UACM, The "Casa Talavera" is located at the "Barrio de la Merced", It's unknown the exact date when it was built, but it considers that it was build at the last part of the XVI century or the first part of the XVII century. It was originally used as a normal lived home, then as a factory, a warehouse and a refuge for ladys. The interior and colors and contrast, remind me the original paintings of that time. A monument lost in the streets of the Mexico City Downtown, A beauty waiting to be known.
