EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing print, titled "An Inca Marriage, or How the Incas Marry Those of Their Own Blood," offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical marriage customs of the Inca civilization, as depicted in an engraving by the renowned French artist Jean Picart le Doux in the late 17th century. The image captures the solemnity and grandeur of the Inca wedding ceremony, with the bride and groom standing before an Inca priest, dressed in traditional attire and adorned with feathers and precious stones. The couple's hands are joined together by the priest, symbolizing the union of their lives. The Inca civilization, which flourished in South America from approximately 1200 to 1533 AD, was known for its complex social structure and rich cultural traditions. Marriage was an essential aspect of Inca society, and the ceremony was a significant event that brought together families and communities. The couple's union was not only a personal commitment but also a political and social alliance. The Inca marriage ceremony was a regional variation of the Andean tradition, which involved various rituals and offerings to the gods to ensure the couple's happiness and fertility. The ceremony often took place in a temple or a sacred place, and the bride and groom were adorned with flowers, feathers, and other natural materials. The couple's families would exchange gifts, and a feast would follow, celebrating the union of the two families and the community. This print is an essential historical record of the Inca marriage ceremony, providing valuable insights into the customs and traditions of a civilization that has left a lasting impact on South American history and culture.
