In 1881, Alfred P. Maudsley took the earliest known photographs of Santiago Atitlan. Maudsley ran afoul when he tried to take pictures in the Atitlan market. He was barely saved from harm by a ladino magistrate that happened to come by.
View of Catholic Church with Volcan San Pedro in background. Note the cemetery and arches to the left of the Church, and the small "capilla" on the southern side of the church plaza. Also take note of the mudslides on San Pedro. Photograph by Alfred P Maudsley, 1881.
