EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "MEXICO: AZTEC DAILY LIFE" takes us back in time to the vibrant world of the Aztecs. Illuminated from the Codex Florentino, a renowned manuscript compiled by Bernardino de Sahagun during the age of discovery, this scene offers a glimpse into the daily life of these ancient people. The image showcases an exterior setting, possibly within a bustling marketplace or communal gathering space. A native Aztec man stands at the center, adorned in a cloak that reflects his cultural identity. His presence exudes strength and resilience as he navigates through his surroundings. The Codex Florentino's intricate manuscript illumination brings this moment to life with its meticulous details and vivid colors. It serves as a valuable historical document providing insights into Mesoamerican civilization and their way of life. As we observe this mesmerizing photograph, we are transported to an era when Latin America was rich with indigenous cultures and traditions.
