The photo was taken by Alfred Maudslay in the plaza at the Maya site of Quirigua, Guatemala, on his visit in 1894. It shows steale A and C, Zoomorph B and his wife Anne Maudslay sitting down with a parasol shading her. Standing on her left is Gorgonio Lopez, a long-time collaborator and assistant to Alfred Maudslay. The quote appended to the image is from the acknowledgements in Maudslay's publication 'Biologia Centrali-Americana: Archaeology'.
