My favorite picture of Villa is this one with Zapata because I find it really funny.
The story goes that Villa arrived at Mexico City with just small military hat, while Zapata had his usual hat. And when this photo was taken, he was looking directly at Zapata’s hat with a little bit of jealousy lmao.
It’s also wild, because Villa was this almost cartoonish Robin Hood, bandido turned general turned revolutionary leader gunslinger type macho and Zapata was portrayed as this uncivilized peasant. Yet somehow Villa rocks up as plain as it gets while Zapata dresses like a damn peacock. Just check his pants and jacket in higher res pics, man’s drip was insane…and then the gigantic (comically large you might say) sombrero to top it off lmao
