EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate busts of sacred idols of the Aztecs in Mexico City. The attention to detail is remarkable, with each idol depicted in a unique and powerful stance. The kneeling idol Chalchiuhtlicue is adorned with a pearl headdress and triangular neckerchief, exuding an air of reverence and mystique. In contrast, the other idol holds a stone in their left hand, with a hole in their chest for incense - possibly copal or xochitlenamactli.
The hand-colored copperplate engraving by Verico from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World truly brings these ancient idols to life. The 19th-century artwork captures the essence of Aztec civilization, mythology, and tradition with precision.
As you gaze upon this image, you can't help but feel transported back in time to an era filled with rich cultural heritage and religious significance. These busts serve as a reminder of the complex belief systems and practices that once thrived in Mexico before European colonization.
This print is not just a visual feast for the eyes; it's also a window into a world steeped in history and spirituality. It invites us to ponder on the mysteries of pre-Columbian civilizations like the Aztecs and appreciate their enduring legacy in modern-day Mexico.
