Item Description

The Glory and Richness of the Aztec Empire

The greatness and power achieved by the Aztec empire occurred in the Late Postclassic period, the final stage of ancient Mexico that spanned the 13th to the early 16th centuries. This era had its counterpart in 15th-century Europe in the intellectual movement in the sciences and the arts known as the Renaissance.

In tandem with the Aztec empire's political dominion, an international artistic style flourished, permeating much of Mesoamerica and imposing forms and symbols comprehensible to very different peoples. This common artistic language was used to overcome linguistic barriers.

The exhibition is divided into twelve themes that provide a thorough representation of Aztec society from its development to the zenith of the empire and its decline.

Item Special Note

Two tickets, include an audio tour. Exhibition open through Feb. 13, 2005.
