Description:... This unique work of reference is produced by the Instituto de Investigaciones Esteticas (University of Mexico City -- UNAM), responsible for the first catalogue of the mural painting of Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica.

Although few of these paintings have survived the passing of time, what remains is a priceless testimony of an extremely refined, sometimes strongly dramatic, artistic sensibility.
