EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse into the rich history of the Aztec civilization during the 15th century. The Codex of the conquest of Mexico: method of preserving food against hunger, depicted in this miniature artwork, showcases an innovative approach to combating hunger through food preservation techniques. Created by Spanish School artists in the 16th century, this miniature is based on Bernardino de Sahagun's Florentine manuscript 'Storia degli Aztechi' (History of the Aztecs), which was compiled between 1569 and 1575. Housed in the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana in Florence, Italy, this manuscript offers invaluable insights into Mesoamerican culture. The vibrant colors and intricate details illuminated within this codex transport us back to a time when Spain was exploring new territories across North America. It serves as a testament to both European influence and native traditions that shaped Central American society. Beyond its historical significance, this image also sheds light on everyday life during pre-Columbian times. It highlights not only culinary practices but also employment opportunities tied to food production and preservation. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, let us appreciate how it connects us with our ancestors who thrived amidst diverse civilizations. This photograph reminds us that art has always been a powerful medium for documenting cultural heritage and preserving stories for generations to come.
