EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a beautifully carved block with an intriguing hat placed in the foreground, while a quaint village serves as the backdrop. The image is part of Edmund Lincoln's miscellaneous papers relating to the excavation of Maya ruins, dating back to circa 1880-1900. It was taken during Harvard University's Peabody Museum of American Archaeology and Ethnology's second archaeological expedition to Copan, Guatemala in 1892-1893. The photograph exudes an air of mystery and discovery as it transports us back in time to witness this remarkable moment in history. The intricate carving on the block hints at ancient craftsmanship and cultural significance, leaving us yearning for more knowledge about its origins. In contrast, the peaceful village nestled behind the carved block offers a glimpse into everyday life during that era. Its rustic charm adds depth and context to this archaeological exploration. Edmund Lincoln meticulously documented his findings by numbering each page with pencil annotations, providing valuable insights into his research process. This particular albumen print captures not only his dedication but also showcases the immense beauty found within Maya ruins. As we admire this photograph today, we are reminded of our collective fascination with uncovering secrets from our past. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and our relentless pursuit of knowledge about civilizations long gone.
