EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "MEXICO: AZTEC SACRIFICE" takes us back to the late 19th century, providing a glimpse into an ancient Aztec ritual. In this drawing, we witness a momentous event as Aztecs offer sacrifices to the Sun God. The image showcases the elaborate costumes worn by the chief and priests involved in this sacred ceremony. The scene unfolds against the backdrop of an impressive temple dedicated to Tezcatlipoca, one of the most revered deities in Mesoamerican culture. The exterior of the temple exudes grandeur and mystique, reflecting its significance as a place where life and death intertwine. As we delve deeper into this mesmerizing artwork, our attention is drawn towards a central figure lying on an altar. This individual's heart is being ceremoniously removed as part of their sacrifice to appease the Sun God. The solemnity surrounding this act reminds us of how deeply ingrained human sacrifice was within Aztec folklore and religious practices. This thought-provoking piece serves as both a historical record and an artistic representation of Mexico's rich cultural heritage. It transports us back in time, offering insights into pre-Columbian life while highlighting Latin America's profound connection with its indigenous roots.
