City of El Paso (El Paso Museum of History)

The El Paso Museum of History will conserve a portrait of Mexican President Porfirio Díaz that was completed by artist José Becerra on March 7, 1910. The painting needs surface cleaning to remove grime, discolored varnish, and small amounts of overpainting. This painting is an important part of the museum's collection, and has historical connections to the Mexican Revolution of 1910.
