Artist Camilo Egas is a painter of indigenous art. I visited the free museum in Centro Histórico. He painted many indigenous paintings as well as paintings from the depression era when he lived in New York.
In the upper floor of the museum is a room of early 20th century political cartoons that were published.
This is a picture of a mural that was commissioned for an expo and painted by the artist.
