EDITORS COMMENTS
This ink drawing from the manuscript "Nueva coronica y buen gobierno" by Don Felipe Puma de Ayala offers a glimpse into the vibrant life of the Inca Empire. Created around 1587, this artwork showcases the Incas diligently building attics, public structures, and religious buildings. The attention to detail in this piece is remarkable, with each stroke of ink capturing the essence of their laborious work. The scene depicts a bustling construction site where Inca laborers are engaged in various tasks. Some are seen carrying heavy loads on their backs while others skillfully construct intricate architectural elements. The composition beautifully captures the harmony between man and nature as these ancient builders seamlessly integrate their creations within the natural landscape. The artist's meticulous rendering transports us back in time to witness firsthand how these magnificent structures came to be. It serves as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the Incas, showcasing their advanced knowledge of engineering and architecture. Displayed at Lima's Museo Nacional de Antropologia, Arqueologia e Historia del Peru, this ink drawing provides invaluable insights into pre-Columbian history. Its preservation allows us to appreciate not only its artistic merit but also gain a deeper understanding of an empire that once thrived in South America. Giancarlo Costa's photograph expertly captures this historical artifact, ensuring that its significance endures for generations to come.
