OriginalChapultepec Castle, from between 1880 and 1897.
Reason
Forgive the two nominations in a row, but I do have a ten-image backlog even including these, so I am trying to be good here. I think this is a fine image, quite good for showing off the structure as it historically was. I think the dome on the tower is the most obvious change from present day. I've gone with original crop; Given the Detroit Publishing Company's works tend to follow very strict ratios, I believe this is how it would have been published. More accurate than the illustrations that are our only other historic guide. Admittedly, could be lower down in the article, but the article's full of modern photos, so it's hard to say.
