EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Fejervary Codex, a remarkable piece of historical documentation from the 19th century. The colourful lithograph depicts an illustration found within an article titled "Notes on Certain Maya and Mexican Manuscripts" by Prof Cyrus Thomas. Published in the Third Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution in 1881-82, this engraving offers a glimpse into ancient Mesoamerican cultures. The image features figures belonging to various indigenous tribes, providing valuable insights into their social structures and customs. With its intricate details and vibrant hues, this manuscript serves as a window into pre-Hispanic Mexico's rich history and cultural heritage. The Fejervary Codex is part of a larger collection known as the Borgia Group, which includes several codices that shed light on Aztec civilization. These manuscripts were crucial for understanding Nahuatl language, Aztec rituals, calendars such as Tonalpohualli, and other aspects of their society. As we admire this photograph print from Fine Art Finder's Elgar Collection, we are transported back in time to witness North America's indigenous peoples' lives through stunning illustrations. This artwork not only celebrates American Native Indians but also highlights their contributions to anthropology and ethnology studies.
