Identifying Postcards by Hugo Brehme
(Germany 1882 - 1954 Mexico)
Hugo Brehme, page three:  A photograph by Brehme is sharply focused, handsomely composed, and richly printed with a full range of light and shadow. The same image can be found in either sepia tones or black and white, and in either glossy or matte finishes:

For over 40 years, Brehme celebrated Mexico's natural beauty in his scenic landscapes.  More importantly, he portrayed with considerable sensitivity and artistry the rich ethnic mixture of the Mexican people and their built environment -- a testimony to the converging of diverse cultures and influences in an intriguing country that became his own.
