EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a breathtaking landscape view towards stelae and unexcavated mounds in Copan, Guatemala. Taken during Harvard University's Peabody Museum of American Archaeology and Ethnology's second archaeological expedition to the region in 1892-1893, this image is part of Edmund Lincoln's miscellaneous papers relating to the excavation of Maya ruins. The photograph, captured using albumen printing techniques between 1892 and 1893, transports us back in time to witness the untouched beauty of these ancient ruins. The vastness of the landscape stretches before our eyes, with rolling hills leading up to towering stelae that stand as silent witnesses to a long-lost civilization. As we gaze upon this scene, we can't help but feel a sense of wonder and curiosity about what lies beneath those unexcavated mounds. The pages numbered in pencil hint at the meticulous documentation carried out by Lincoln during his expedition. This print serves as both a testament to human ingenuity and an invitation for further exploration into our shared history. It reminds us that there are still mysteries waiting to be unraveled within these ancient sites. With its rich historical significance and stunning visual appeal, this photograph captures not just a moment frozen in time but also ignites our imagination about the wonders hidden within Guatemala's archaeological treasures.
