Description
Colorized Photo 1890
This is the Hotel Deligencias, from 1890. A hotel that is still around now, and has been since the late 1790's. The walls were built to withstand pirate attack.
I liked how they were formal, yet this was a common, every day how they dressed kind of image. Each ones has a look of boredom or conempt waiting for the image to finish so they can eat. I chose yellow because the hotel is currently yellow and businesses usually keep their colors as a trademark. I was going to choose a coral. So instead I used pink for the trim, table clothes, and waiters. Hard to know what they actually wore in those days.
The plates I made green just because I didn't like them white, the green in the planters help tie it in, as does the green all around them.
