EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the illustrious Maya king, Chan Bahlum II of Palenque. The image depicts the Temple of the Cross Complex, an awe-inspiring collection of temples located in the ancient Maya site of Palenque in Chiapas, Mexico. Constructed by Kan-Bahlum during his reign from 684 AD to 702 AD, this complex stands as a testament to his architectural prowess and cultural significance. Chan Bahlum II, also known as Kinich Kan Bahlam II, ascended to power in January 684 after the passing of his father and predecessor, Kinich Janaab Pakal I. His rule lasted until his death in February 702. This sculpture panel on the west side doorway of the Temple of the Cross (Stele 175) immortalizes him as a ruler during Palenque's Classic period. In this artwork reproduction from Grafissimo's archives sourced from America 1892 after Frederick Catherwood's original edition, we see King Chan Bahlum II adorned in an elaborate costume that includes a skeletalized bird backrack. He holds a Quadripartite Badge and personified perforator in his right hand while being identified as K'inich Janaab Pakal's child through accompanying text. This stunning print serves as a window into ancient Mayan history and offers us a glimpse into the grandeur and sophistication of Palenque under King Chan Bahlum II's reign.
