EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing anthropomorphic head, believed to be a censer, dating back to the years between 1000 and 1500. Carved out of limestone by the Mayan civilization, this remarkable piece is now housed in the Museo Nacional de Arqueologia y Etnologia in Guatemala City. The intricate details of this sculpture are truly mesmerizing. The artist has skillfully transformed stone into a beast-like face that exudes both mystery and power. With its zoomorphic features and gruesome expression, it transports us back to the pre-Columbian era, offering a glimpse into Mesoamerican culture. The grotesque nature of this carving adds an element of intrigue as we ponder its significance within Mayan society. Was it used for ceremonial purposes or perhaps as a symbol of protection?
