Synopsis
Excerpt from El Palacio, Vol. 21: July 1, 1926
The charm of Santa Fe to the outsider lies largely in the fact that the several elements of its population Indian, Spanish, and Nordic conqueror and conquered mingle so harmoni ously in the affairs of daily life, yet preserve such individuality. It is a great lesson in toler ance. In the craft-shops, Indian pottery and baskets vie with the peasant wares of Spain: Mexican and Navaho blankets are easily distin guishable each from the other in texture and workmanship; Indian jewelry is antipodal to the delicate Mexican filigree. Here are antique paintings brought by the conquistadores from overseas, images from altars fallen to ruin; gay serapes, lacy mantillas, exquisite Spanish shawls; and there an exhibit by taos-santa Fe artists.
