Archive - First Color, Mexico by Inge Morath 

"Inge Morath's early colour photographs, made in the 1950s and 1960s, show all the humour and keen perception that distinguishes her more familiar work in black and white. In addition, these images reveal a great degree of skill and sensitivity to the unique demands of working with colour film. Morath exerts exquisite control at moments where a less disciplined artist might succumb to sentiment. In image after image, she finds the essential colourful detail that transforms an ordinary view into a lyrical metaphor"
Exert from Mary Panzer's introductory essay
