EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the representation of Tenochtitlan, the former Aztec capital that met its tragic end at the hands of Cortes in 1521. Created by Jules Ferrario in his work "The old and modern costume" between 1819-1820, this engraving offers a glimpse into the rich history and architecture of this ancient civilization. The image showcases an exterior view of Tenochtitlan, with its impressive pyramids and temples towering over the cityscape. The intricate details of the buildings highlight the advanced architectural skills possessed by the Aztecs. From this aerial perspective, one can appreciate both their grandeur and fortification. As we delve into this visual masterpiece, it becomes evident that Ferrario's portrayal aims to capture not only the physical aspects but also convey a sense of awe-inspiring beauty intertwined with melancholy. It serves as a poignant reminder of a once-thriving civilization cut short by conquest. Leonard de Selva's expert reproduction ensures that every nuance is faithfully preserved, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in this historical moment. This photograph print transports us back to pre-Columbian America, offering insight into Mexico's vibrant past.
