José Guadalupe Posada Museum

The José Guadalupe Posada Museum in Aguascalientes is dedicated to the graphic work of the city’s native printmaker and is especially important for preserving original signed printing plates that connect visitors directly to his working process. Opened in 1972 and jointly administered by state and federal authorities, it occupies a historic former cloister and priest’s residence in the old Triana neighborhood near the Church of El Señor del Encino. Its collection includes plates for broadsides, surviving broadsides, book and song-cover designs, engravings by Manuel Manilla, antique engraving equipment, and changing exhibitions, emphasizing the scale, precision, and lasting impact of Posada’s imagery.
