The Sartorialist

This has to be one of my favourite vintage shots you’ve shared.
I’m hoping that we’ll go to Colombia in the next two years so this just fuels the fire. :)

looks more like Greece, but great picture and very interesting mix. http://madrilicious.com

Sorry but that’s Bogota, it’s the presidential palace (Casa de Narino)

Beautiful vintage image from my dear Colombia but it’s actually not taken in Medellín (where i’m from), it’s taken in Bogotá, the capital of Colombia.

You can tell by the architecture and how these characters are dresses. The shot is exactly in La Plaza de Bolívar, ouside one of the government building you can find there. Here’s a general image of the place: http://www.gairavip.com/gairadestinos/plazabolivar.jpg

Bogotá is actually quite cold and that’s why indians from the region dress with warm ponchos. Here, in Medellín, we don’t have indian colonies anymore and the temperature is way warmer.

Brilliant! Street fashion at its best! Thanks

Such a peculiar and thought-provoking photograph. Love it!

Probably the photo was not taken in Medellin but the ” Capitolio Nacional de Colombia” in Bogota.

It’s incredible how this picture looks so current today

Indigenous people of colombia characterizes themself by the originalty, color use and elaboration of their costumes. Bags and accesories are done in a precise and meticulous way.

I love my country!!

Colombia, as most of Latin America, is an amazing mixture of cultures.  All ethnic groups (latinos of european descent, indigenous, and africans) are highly aesthetic-oriented so you see some pretty great style and architecture (contrary to what hollydoowd has shown). It is an awesome reality and this picture captures its cultural richness pretty well.

It’s Bogotá, the colombian capital.

The look on their faces! Hilarious! Love it!

Amazing photo! One of my favorite vintage photos you have posted. It is almost hypnotizing.

Nice. The boy with the glasses in front is a real star, but they are all very fun to look at.

WOW!i love this photo, everyone here has their own style, the 2 men in the front, just love love them, cant stop looking at them, all the details..and the little child, so so cute, then the other members so proper in a way…really a nice composition.

This pic is amazing……….

Man, I’d love to know the story behind this one! They remind me of the brothers in Peter Pan…

The past, present and the future!

This photo defenetely tells a story. You can look at it forever, wondering about the circumstances and reasons..

The expressions are priceless! Also love the colors. With all the vintage photo filters we’ve gotten so accustomed to, it’s nice to see actual vintage photos sometimes.

It’s hard to think that these two families were together, but rather, that both were visiting the country’s capital Bogotá (or perhaps immigrating) and that the parents thought it would be an interesting picture to have the kids pose with the other family as a souvenir. I would find it shocking if there was actually friendship, but I truly doubt it and so I find the picture quite sad.
