Text description provided by the architects. Throughout his career, Mexican painter José María Velasco developed an iconic vision of the Mexican landscape between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. His work granted him multiple national accolades and international recognition, and through it, he ultimately created a symbol of national identity out of the geography of Mexico. The painting El Valle de Mexico is considered one of his most important works. In all seven versions of this painting, the elements of the composition remain consistent: the sky, mountains on the horizon, the valley, rocks, vegetation, and vernacular architecture.
