EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sacrifice on the techatl stone" takes us back to ancient Aztec times, capturing a moment of intense religious significance. Created by an English School in the 19th century, this engraving now resides in a private collection. The image portrays a scene filled with solemnity and ritual. A group of priests and their assistants surround a large stone altar known as the techatl stone. The sun shines brightly overhead, casting its rays upon the unfolding ceremony. In the center lies a human sacrifice, his body laid bare for all to witness. The priest at the forefront is seen removing organs from the sacrificial victim's chest with precision and purpose. This act symbolizes an offering to appease deities and ensure prosperity for their people. As we delve into this historical moment frozen in time, it becomes evident that religion played an integral role in Aztec society. The clergy, monks, and religious orders were tasked with carrying out these sacred rituals that held immense spiritual importance. Through this digitally cleaned image courtesy of Look and Learn and Bridgeman Images, we are granted access to explore different cultures' beliefs and practices throughout history—reminding us of humanity's diverse tapestry woven through faith.
