Book Synopsis Colors Between Two Worlds by : Gerhard Wolf
Book excerpt: For half a century the Franciscan friar Bernardino de SahagÃon (1499âe"1590) worked on a compendium of the beliefs, rituals, language, arts, and economy of the vanishing Aztec culture. This volume examines the Aztec use of colorâe"in art and everyday lifeâe"as revealed in the Codex, the most richly illustrated manuscript of this great ethnographic work.
