EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of time and culture in a mesmerizing way. Titled "Siecle, year & Mexican months represented by figures (sun, moon)", this artwork is part of "The Ancient and Modern Costume" collection created by Dr. Jules Ferrario in 1819-1820. In this image, we are transported to a world where the celestial bodies take on human form to represent the passing of time. The sun and moon figures symbolize day and night, while a circle depicting the calendar encircles them. Each month is personified with its own unique symbolism, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Mexico. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he beautifully blends elements of astrology, astronomy, and pre-Columbian American symbolism into one harmonious composition. The Aztec influence can be seen through intricate designs that adorn the figures' costumes. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the interconnectedness between nature and humanity's perception of time. It serves as a reminder that our existence is but a small part within an expansive universe governed by cosmic forces. Leonard de Selva has skillfully captured this piece with his lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. This print invites us to delve into history and appreciate the artistry behind it while also acknowledging its significance in understanding Mexican culture during that era.
