EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate beauty of a Mosaic of a double-headed serpent, crafted by the skilled hands of Aztec and Mixtec artisans in 15th-16th century Mexico. This ceremonial pectoral piece is not only a testament to the advanced artistic abilities of Mesoamerican civilizations but also serves as a symbol of power, prestige, and religious significance.
The vibrant colors and meticulous details of this mosaic reflect the deep connection that these ancient cultures had with nature, particularly with snakes which were often associated with fertility, transformation, and divine wisdom.
