For years, Maricruz Rosales Cruz has operated a tienda de textile cum haberdashery off the main plaza in Oaxaca, Mexico. An engaging, theatrical and exceedingly eccentric woman, Maricruz will regale any willing inquisitor with tales of her former life in the limelight on the dramatic stages of Oaxaca and Mexico City, and even volunteer to pose in one of her costumes under the pious gaze of Santo Domingo cathedral. Here she strikes a particularly poignant and dignified pose inside her private sanctuary, insisting at upwards of 80 years old that she still has it, before spinning around in her dress in a way that exudes a sexually charged eternal vitality.
