EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating manuscript by Bernardino Sahagun, offering a glimpse into the dark practices of human sacrifice and cannibalism among the Aztecs. Dating back to the 17th century, this remarkable piece is housed in the prestigious Biblioteca Laurenziana in Florence. The image transports us to a time long ago, where ancient rituals unfolded amidst the vibrant civilization of Mexico. Through Sahagun's meticulous illustrations, we witness scenes that both intrigue and disturb our modern sensibilities. The manuscript vividly depicts sacrificial ceremonies carried out by the Aztecs, shedding light on their complex belief system and cultural practices. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we are confronted with unsettling images of ritualistic violence intertwined with religious devotion. The Aztecs' practice of anthropophagy - consuming human flesh - is also depicted within these pages, adding another layer of macabre fascination. Bernardino Sahagun's manuscript serves as an invaluable historical document that allows us to better understand one aspect of pre-Columbian American civilizations. It invites contemplation about how different societies perceive life and death throughout history. Through Giancarlo Costa's expert lens capturing this print, we are reminded once again that art has the power not only to captivate but also to educate and provoke thought about our shared human experience across time and cultures.
