Page from an ancient codex or book
Artista: Bernardino de Sahagún
Siglo XVI · México
Colección: Códice Florentino
This page from a manuscript codex, attributed to Bernardino de Sahagún, features old and dense writing in two columns, characteristic of the works of evangelizing friars in the Viceroyalty of New Spain. The style, with its calligraphic script and apparent absence of illustrations, suggests a focus on textual content.
