EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "INCA: MUMMIFIED RULER" transports us back in time to the ancient Inca Empire. The image captures a profound moment of reverence and tradition as the mummy of a former ruler is carried through the streets of Cusco in a solemn procession. The intricate pen and ink drawing, created by Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala between 1583-1615, showcases his remarkable talent for capturing historical events with meticulous detail. The composition exudes an aura of both grandeur and melancholy, as we witness this ceremonial tribute to a deceased king. The mummy lies atop an ornate litter, adorned with symbols representing the sun and moon - powerful celestial entities revered by the Incas. Native American men bear the weight of their fallen leader's remains, moving forward with unwavering determination amidst a sea of onlookers. This snapshot from Peru's rich pre-Columbian history serves as a reminder that even in death, rulers held immense significance within Inca society. Their passing was marked by elaborate rituals and processions that aimed to honor their legacy while ensuring their spiritual journey into the afterlife. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork from The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, we are transported not only to ancient times but also encouraged to reflect on our own mortality. It invites us to contemplate how different cultures throughout history have approached death and remembrance – reminding us that even long-gone civilizations can continue to inspire
