EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print, titled "Battle between Indians near a temple, Tohuautlican, Mexico, 1640" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Painted by Diego Garcia Panes in the 18th century, it depicts a fierce battle scene unfolding near an ancient temple in Tohuautlican. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully captures the intensity of the conflict. The vibrant colors and intricate brushwork bring life to this historical event. We witness indigenous warriors engaged in combat with their pre-Colombian weapons - arrows flying through the air and shields protecting them from harm. The setting itself adds another layer of intrigue; the sacred temple stands tall amidst chaos and destruction. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that was at stake during these tumultuous times. Diego Panes' work offers us a glimpse into North America's pre-Hispanic era, showcasing both its beauty and brutality. This painting not only highlights human conflict but also celebrates indigenous artistry and resilience. Preserved within the Biblioteca Nacional de Mexico, this watercolour print is part of Luisa Ricciarini's collection - an invaluable treasure for those passionate about Mexican history and art. As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded of our shared humanity across time and cultures while acknowledging the complexities inherent in our pasts.
