Commentary: This print is from a series of 11 known etchings depicting traditional fiestas in small villages in the state of Tabasco. This image probably depicts the Danza del Caballito Blanco at the Ermita de San Francisco del Pial in Quintín Aráuz, Municipio de Centla. The interior and exterior of the church are depicted in two other etchings in the series. (Peter Schneider)
