EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut reproduction takes us back to the 16th century, offering a glimpse into the mysterious world of Brazilian cannibalism. The scene depicts natives from northern Brazil engaging in an ancient practice of consuming and cooking human flesh. As we observe this historic illustration, we are transported to a time when exploration and discovery were at their peak in South America. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that existed long before modern civilization took hold. Intriguingly, amidst this shocking display, we witness a family unit partaking in this traditional meal together. A woman and child stand beside the fire, witnessing firsthand an age-old custom passed down through generations. The image evokes mixed emotions - curiosity mingled with unease - as it challenges our understanding of history and cultural practices. It compels us to question how such rituals shaped societies during the New World's Age of Discovery. While unsettling for some viewers, it is essential to approach this artwork with sensitivity and respect for its historical context rather than sensationalizing or romanticizing cannibalism itself. This thought-provoking print offers us an opportunity to explore untold stories from our past while reminding us that history is complex and multifaceted – sometimes revealing aspects that challenge our preconceived notions about humanity's journey through time.
