EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring Monster Mouth Doorway, Structure II in Hochob, a Mayan archaeological site located in Campeche, Mexico. The Chenes style architecture of this ancient structure is beautifully showcased against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. The intricate carvings and decorative details on the stone doorway are a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the Mayan civilization. Dating back to the late Classic Period, this architectural marvel transports us back to the 7th or 8th century. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be amazed by the skill and craftsmanship that went into creating such an extraordinary piece of art. The monstrous mouth-like design adds an element of mystery and intrigue to this already fascinating structure. Standing outside Structure II, surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees, one can only imagine what life was like during ancient times when these buildings were bustling with activity. Today, it serves as a popular tourist destination for those seeking to explore and learn about Mayan culture. Richard Maschmeyer's photography perfectly captures not just the physical beauty of this historical site but also evokes a sense of wonderment at our human capacity for creativity and ingenuity throughout time.
