Otavalo, Ecuador: Portraits by Orbe

We met the artist Carlos Orbe 28 years ago in San Antonio de Ibarra. In the back of his studio he had piles of his "l*ngo" portraits (as he called them) which were just sitting forgotten in a corner. We bought them all and continued to buy whatever portraits of the Indigenous people he painted. Orbe went blind in his 60s and 8 years later regained his sight after an operation. He passed away several years ago. Rest in Peace, Maestro Orbe.
