Aureliano Urrutia, a prominent physician in Mexico City, built the Miraflores garden after immigrating to Texas during the Mexican Revolution. A man of science, he valued nature, art, literature, history, and community. The garden, whose name roughly translates to "behold the flowers," was built primarily from 1921 to 1945. Its plants, architecture, sculpture, and artistry formed a cultural landscape reflecting Urrutia's love for and memory of his homeland. Though recent decades have rendered much of the garden decayed and barely recognizable, it is now part of San Antonio's historic Brackenridge Park.
Miraflores: San Antonios Mexican Garden of Memory recounts the gardens history and celebrates the importance of the cultural, historical, and artistic meaning of a place.
