Osuna Codex
Artista: No identificado
Siglo XVI · México
Colección: Códice Osuna
This page from the Codex Osuna displays a series of illustrations that appear to detail tribute or possessions, represented by glyphs and human figures. The combination of writing and drawing, with the use of colors like red and green, is characteristic of the Mesoamerican pictographic tradition adapted to the colonial context. The caricatured figures at the bottom suggest a possible narrative or explanation for the upper images.
