Description

Explore the architectural and sculptural heights of the Late Classic Maya world with this specialized volume from Princeton University Press. Focusing on Palenque, the regional capital of the western quadrant, this book provides a detailed look at a site that reached levels of artistry unmatched by other Maya centers. Part of Merle Green Robertson's comprehensive series, this fourth volume offers a deep dive into the reign of Lord Chan. It serves as a vital historical record, capturing the art and color of the site through hundreds of color and black-and-white photographs and line drawings. This documentation is especially important because much of the original color is no longer visible at the actual site due to the effects of the tropical jungle environment, acid rain, and vandalism. Whether you are a student of Maya history or an enthusiast of ancient sculpture, this book offers one of the most complete records of any Maya site available. It preserves the visual legacy of the Cross Group, North Group, and the Olividado for future study and appreciation.
