EDITORS COMMENTS
This ink drawing, titled "The beginning of agricultural works in August" takes us back to the 16th century Inca Empire. Created by Felipe Huaman Poma de Ayala, this artwork is part of a private collection and showcases the rich cultural traditions and customs of the Inca people. In this scene, we witness the commencement of field work in August, coinciding with a grand popular feast that involved both nobles and commoners. The meticulous details captured by Don Felipe Puma de Ayala in his manuscript "Nueva coronica y buen gobierno" bring to life the vibrant existence of the Incas during this time. A young woman stands at the center of attention, symbolizing strength and resilience as she wields an agricultural tool. Surrounded by lush fields ready for cultivation, she represents not only a peasant but also embodies the spirit of summer and abundance. This remarkable piece transports us to pre-Columbian South America, where agriculture played a crucial role in sustaining communities. It serves as a reminder of our deep connection with nature and how it has shaped human civilization throughout history. Luisa Ricciarini's print captures every intricate detail from this ancient ink drawing while preserving its historical significance. As we admire this artwork today, let us appreciate the wisdom passed down through generations and honor those who laid the foundation for our modern agricultural practices.
