Sculpture of Padre Antonio José Martínez in Taos Plaza. Martínez was born in Abiquiu in 1793. He became a parish priest in Taos in the 1820s. He witnessed the tumultuous transition from Spanish colony to Mexican territory to American territory. In terrms of work drama, Martínez went head to head with Archbishop Lamy. Evidently, Lamy didn't appreciate Martínez' criticism, because he excommunicated him in 1858.
I am not sure who put a pumpkin (or gourd) on his head. Wasn't me.
