Description: Juan Vela was one of three Cortinistas condemned for murder during Juan Cortina's 1859 raid in Brownsville, Texas. This portrait of Vela was taken shortly before his execution on June 22, 1866. Because of the poor light in the prison where he was photographed, the image was heavily retouched to show his hair and beard. The photographer was likely to be Louis de Planque or R. H. Wallis.
