EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "MACHU PICCHU: GATE" takes us on a journey back in time to the ancient Inca city nestled high in the Peruvian mountains. Through the skilled artistry of reconstruction, based on Hiram Bingham's meticulous notes, we are transported to witness how the main gate of Machu Picchu was closed. The artist's drawing showcases the incredible craftsmanship and ingenuity of the Incas as they constructed this monumental gateway. Made from sturdy stone and wood, it stands tall and proud, a testament to their advanced engineering skills. The gate is adorned with intricate carvings that reflect their rich cultural heritage. In order to protect this magnificent city, ropes hang from wooden poles at either side of the gate. These ropes were likely used by guards or inhabitants to secure and close off access when necessary. This image offers a glimpse into how these protective measures were implemented centuries ago. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can't help but be captivated by its historical significance. It serves as a reminder of the remarkable achievements of pre-Columbian civilizations like the Incas who left behind such awe-inspiring architectural wonders for us to marvel at today. "MACHU PICCHU: GATE" is part of The Granger Collection's carousel collection, which celebrates diverse cultures and historical landmarks through art prints that transport viewers across time and space.
