EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the western side of the grand courtyard at Palenque Palace in Chiapas, Mexico. Taken by renowned archaeologist Alfred Percival Maudslay in 1899, this gelatin developing out paper print provides a fascinating glimpse into the ancient Aztec, Maya, and Zapotec ruins. The image reveals an ongoing excavation project within the palace complex, focusing on the west patio and tower. The intricate details captured in this photograph highlight the architectural marvels of Palenque and offer valuable insights into its historical significance. Presented to this museum as a gift by esteemed archaeologist Sr. Alfredo P. Maudslay himself, this photograph holds immense cultural value. Its title is derived from a caption found within the negative itself. On closer examination of the verso, we find additional information inscribed by A. P. Maudslay: "Palenque Palace Patio". This inscription further emphasizes Maudslay's connection to both his work and this particular site. As we admire this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its contribution to our understanding of ancient civilizations. It serves as a reminder that through photography and archaeological exploration, we can unlock secrets buried beneath layers of time and preserve their legacy for generations to come.
