EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent ceramic sculpture of Xipe Totec, a significant figure in Toltec culture. Standing at an impressive height of 152.4 cm, this artwork is housed in the prestigious American Museum of Natural History in New York, USA. Xipe Totec holds great importance in Aztec mythology and religion as the deity representing life-death-rebirth. He is revered as the god of agriculture, vegetation, disease, spring, goldsmiths, silversmiths, and the seasons. This multifaceted representation reflects his power over various aspects of life. The craftsmanship evident in this sculpture is truly remarkable. The artist skillfully captures Xipe Totec's essence with a stylized approach that exudes both naivety and grandeur simultaneously. Every detail on this earthenware piece speaks volumes about Central American artistry during ancient times.
