This photo essay is a portrait of one of Guatemala's greatest creative minds of the last century, "El Gran Maestro" Efrain Recinos who left a legacy in architecture, painting, sculpture and drawing. The images were taken on a sunny afternoon outside his studio. The series of 49 photos of his iconic vests, which he wore as part of his attire to protect his clothes from the daily routine while he was in his construction days, we see a colorful expression of his lucid, defying and brilliant character. Long live Maestro Recinos.
