EDITORS COMMENTS
This ink drawing, titled "An Inca Hatun Runa couple working in the fields in January" transports us back to the 16th century and offers a glimpse into the lives of indigenous people during the Inca Empire. Created by Felipe Huaman Poma de Ayala, this artwork is part of his manuscript "Nueva coronica y buen gobierno" which beautifully illustrates various aspects of Incan life. In this particular scene, we witness an Indian couple from the Hatun Runa class diligently tending to their agricultural duties in January. The woman can be seen gracefully maneuvering an agricultural tool while her male counterpart works alongside her. Their attire reflects their social status as members of the peasant class within Incan society. The artist's intricate ink work brings depth and texture to every stroke, capturing not only the physical labor but also conveying a sense of harmony between humans and nature. This image serves as a reminder of the importance placed on agriculture within pre-Columbian societies and highlights how these communities relied on their land for sustenance. Luisa Ricciarini's print allows us to appreciate this historical masterpiece even today. It invites us to reflect upon our connection with our environment and recognize the rich cultural heritage that shaped South America long before modern times.
