aztec art

Shaped like a florid shell, this sculpture of a merlon is crafted by Mexico's Elisa Camarena. "This type of merlons adorned the calmécac, which were schools for the sons of the Aztec nobility where they studied to become priests, warriors, judges, governors, etc.," explains Camarena. The beige sculpture contrasts with the brown pinewood stand.

Feathers fan outward like petals, framing the face of Quetzalcoatl. Working in clay, artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association depict the "plumed serpent" with tiger teeth, to destroy enemies' hearts. The original piece was found in the Temple of Teotihuacan and dates from the Classic Period (100 to 800 AD). This exquisite sculpture faithfully replicates the original.

Ceramic sculpture, 'Tezcatlipoca as a Jaguar' - Aztec Tezcatlipoca Jaguar Signed Ceramic Sculpture

The most important deity in the Aztec pantheon, Tezcatlipoca, or "Smoking Mirror," is also one of the oldest, first appearing during the pre-Mexica Teotihuacan era. He is the god of fertility, of the wind, of life, of maize and of agriculture, and is said to have taught humans how to measure time and create the calendar. He is considered the antagonist of Quetzalcoatl, yet in later accounts, Quetzalcoatl is described as the black Tezcatlipoca.

Working in polychrome ceramic, Angel Cerón depicts Tezcatlipoca as his nahual, or animal counterpart — a jaguar named Tepeyollotli.

"Mayahuel was said to have over 400 breasts, that's why the Mexica gods transformed her into a maguey plant. She is usually portrayed with full breasts and opened legs, as if giving birth," say artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association as they explain the rich symbolism of this ceramic sculpture. A piece inspired by the Laud Codex (1325-1521), this sculpture portrays Mayahuel as a mother as well as goddess of fertility who fed her children with the fermented juice of the maguey - known as pulque.

Ceramic sculpture, 'Aztec Calendar Eagle Warrior' - Ceramic Eagle Warrior Sculpture with Aztec Calendar

"Both the sun calendar and the eagle warrior are representative of the Mexica culture, also known as Aztec," explain artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association as they introduce this original sculpture. "Briefly, the Aztec calendar symbolizes the ages of earth as well as the deities who they honored through rituals, ceremonies and human sacrifices to preserve cosmic order. Eagle warriors were held in high regard for their bravery and courage. War was crucial to the Aztec Empire, for that is how they sustained their economy and religion." The artisans craft the ceramic sculpture by hand with elaborate detail with color accents.

Ceramic wall art, 'Fifth Sun in Orange' - Aztec Fifth Sun Calendar Museum Replica Ceramic Wall Art

Artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association handcraft a ceramic replica of an Aztec calendar that will make an intriguing conversation piece wherever it is displayed. A replica of the Piedra del Sol, the "sun stone," found in the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City, the images in the calendar represent the legend of the fifth sun. According to Mesoamerican cosmology, there were four suns before our current sun, all destroyed, along with the people of the time, by the wrath of the gods. Faithful to the original, the replica is full of intricate detail and painted in warm, earthy orange, red, green, and beige. A sueded leather cord makes a loop at the top for easy hanging.
