Emilia Ortiz (English)

She is one of the most renowned Mexican painters, as the quality of her work and her drive to improve with time is transcendent. She has a collection of more than 4,000 pieces of art, such as drawings, paintings, sketches, photographs, recipe books, and diaries. Her teacher, Rodríguez Lozano, considered her the best painter in Mexico and for good reason, since she earned that title with her work and experience. At the age of 16, she published five of her cartoons in the newspaper “El Nacional” and it was there when she began her first paintings.
In spite of the conservative Mexico of the 19th century, she was a promoter and disseminator of Nayarit art and one of the most prolific painters in Mexico, with the legacy that she created. Although she is not very well known in our country, her talent transcends eras that remain engraved in her great works and paintings.
