EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Performance of a tragedy by the students in the court of the College of San Bernardo at Cuzco" takes us back to a time when education and art intertwined seamlessly. The image showcases a group of talented young students, dressed in traditional attire, passionately performing a tragedy within the grand court of the College of San Bernardo. The scene is set against the backdrop of Cuzco, an ancient city nestled in Peru's breathtaking landscape. As we observe this moment frozen in time, we are reminded of Latin America's rich cultural heritage and its deep appreciation for theater and drama. The presence of monks adds an intriguing element to this visual narrative, hinting at their involvement or perhaps mentorship in these artistic endeavors. Their austere robes juxtaposed with vibrant costumes create a striking contrast that further enhances our curiosity about this performance. Through this engraving, artist Edouard Riou skillfully captures not only the essence of South American culture but also highlights how education can be brought to life through creative expression. It serves as a testament to the power and universality of theater as it transcends borders and connects people from different walks of life. As viewers, we find ourselves transported into this historical moment where passion meets tradition, leaving us inspired by both the beauty on display and the enduring spirit that continues to shape Latin America's artistic landscape today.
