Hermenegildo Bustos
In a tiny village lost in the vast geography of nineteenth century Mexico, there was born, lived and died a South America painter who, for his whole life, ignored that fact that he was a great artist. He was called Hermenegildo Bustos, and he was a seller of snow, ice creams and sorbets. He paid more attention to the excellence of his lemon sorbets that he did to his paintings, in which he portrayed his fellow villagers, and he modestly declared himself an aficionado or dilettante. He had in fact studied, only for a few months, with a local provincial painter, but that brief apprenticeship gave him a technical ability which, along with his penetrating capacity for observation, made him an unconscious master of magical realism. A great modern Mexican writer, the Nobel Prize winner Octavio Paz, tells the singular tale of this petit maître, while an essay by the historiographer Luis González y González recreates the little, universal happenings of a nearby village, similar to the home of Bustos. The volume is completed by a chronology of Mexican historical and artistic events of the age.

Hermenegildo Bustos
In un piccolo paese sperso nella dilatata geografia del Messico ottocentesco nacque, visse e morě senza quasi uscirne un indio che ignorň per tutta la vita di essere un grande pittore. Si chiamava Hermenegildo Bustos, e di mestiere faceva il nevero, ossia il venditore di neve, il gelatiere o meglio il sorbettiere; e attribuiva maggior importanza all’eccellenza dei suoi sorbetti al limone che ai dipinti in cui ritraeva i suoi compaesani, e che firmava dichiarandosi pudicamente un aficionado, un dilettante. Aveva studiato infatti, e solo per pochi mesi, presso un pittore di provincia, ma di quel breve apprendistato gli rimase un’abilitŕ tecnica che unita a una penetrante capacitŕ di osservazione fece di lui un inconsapevole maestro del realismo magico. Un grande scrittore messicano di oggi, il Premio Nobel Octavio Paz, ci narra la favola di questo singolarissimo petit maître, mentre un saggio dello storiografo Luis González y González ricrea le vicende minime e universali di un villaggio vicino e simile alla minuscola patria di Bustos. Una cronologia degli eventi storico-artistici messicani dell’epoca completa il volume.
