EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mystique and ancient beauty of Peruvian mummies, as depicted in "Incidents of Travel and Exploration in the Land of the Incas" by E. George Squier, published in 1878. The engraving, created by an anonymous English artist from the 19th century, showcases a private collection that offers a rare glimpse into Incan burial rituals. The image transports us to Pachacamac, where these remarkable mummies were laid to rest in consecrated ground. Each mummy tells a story of life and death during the Inca civilization, preserving their physical forms through meticulous mummification practices. Intricate details are revealed within this engraving; we can almost feel the reverence with which these bodies were prepared for their eternal journey. The delicate artistry employed in wrapping each body is evident as we observe every fold and contour captured on paper. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, our minds wander back centuries to an era when such burial rites held deep spiritual significance for the Incas. This image serves as a testament to human curiosity about our past and reminds us of our connection to those who came before us. Through this photograph's timeless appeal, it becomes clear that even after all these years have passed since its creation, it continues to captivate viewers with its profound insight into ancient cultures and their enduring legacies.
