EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning pendant representing a sun disk, originating from Zaachila, Oaxaca in Mexico. Created by the talented Mixtec people between the years 1300 and 1521, this golden masterpiece stands at an impressive height of 11.7 cm. Currently housed in the Museo Nacional de Antropologia in Mexico City, this ancient artifact holds immense historical and cultural significance. The pendant features a mesmerizing seated figure at its center, which intriguingly doubles as a hollow bell. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are truly remarkable, highlighting the exceptional skill of the Mixtec artisans who created it centuries ago. With its intricate design and radiant gold hue, this pendant represents not only exquisite jewelry but also serves as a window into Mesoamerican pre-Columbian culture. It is an embodiment of their reverence for celestial bodies like the sun and their deep connection with nature.
