EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century print showcases a detailed map of Tzintzuntzan, the Spanish colonial headquarters in Mexico. Created by Bradley Smith, this piece from the Carousel Collection takes us back to a time when bustling cities and silver mines shaped the landscape of Latin America. The center of attention on this map is undoubtedly Tzintzuntzan itself, with its intricate streets and grand buildings that reflect the influence of Spanish architecture. As we move our gaze upwards, we encounter Patzcuaro, a thriving silver mining town nestled near Lake Patzcuaro. The topographic details beautifully capture the natural beauty surrounding these urban centers. Mesoamerica comes alive through this artwork as it transports us to New Spain during its colonial era. The fusion between indigenous culture and European colonization is evident in every stroke of this drawing. It serves as a testament to the rich history and heritage that shaped modern-day Mexico. Bradley Smith's meticulous craftsmanship allows us to explore not only geographical features but also historical narratives embedded within each town represented on this map. This print offers an opportunity for viewers to delve into Mexican history while appreciating the artistic talent behind it.
