At about that time Michael whom had studied and collected antique Native American art also developed an intense interest in early Spanish and Spanish Colonial Antiques, encouraged by his trips to visit relatives in Mexico he began to travel extensively in Mexico and South America buying Spanish Colonial art when great things were plentiful and comparatively inexpensive, it was an irreplaceable learning experience.
