EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Sculptured Stones from the Temple of the Cross in Palenque, Mexico. Taken from Claude-Joseph-Desire Charnay's renowned book "The Ancient Cities of the New World" published in 1887, this engraving transports us to a bygone era. Intricately carved and exquisitely detailed, these stones offer a glimpse into Mayan civilization and their rich mythology. The image features an awe-inspiring figure adorned in a tiger skin, standing amidst an underworld house or interior shrine. As we delve deeper into this artwork, our eyes are drawn to the striking snake-like serpent that coils around the figure. Each stone tells a story; each carving holds secrets waiting to be unraveled. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also invites us to explore the spiritual significance behind these ancient artifacts. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but marvel at how time has preserved such remarkable pieces of history. It serves as a reminder of humanity's unending quest for knowledge and understanding of our past. Through this image captured by Fine Art Finder on behalf of www. bridgemanimages. com, we are transported back centuries ago when civilizations thrived and art flourished – reminding us that even today, these sculptured stones continue to captivate and inspire all who behold them.
