Mystical Maya Land: The Mexican Yucatán Peninsula and the Caribbean Sea – Turquoise, Green, and Emerald. These colors are also featured in Andreas Bromba’s new photo series. Additionally, it showcases in many shades the ancient stone buildings, pyramids, and artifacts of the formerly significant Maya city of Chichén Itzá.
Approximately 30 motifs from September 2019 exist, predominantly from Chichén Itzá. Furthermore, there are additional motifs from the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City, a globally unique museum dedicated to the ancient peoples of Mesoamerica. Many well-known motifs have impressed visitors from all over the world for decades: the Aztec “Sun Stone,” eerie goddesses and gods (excellent material for horror films), or the multi-ton Olmec heads. Mexico is too vast – one cannot see everything. The National Museum of Anthropology serves as an excellent substitute.
The outdoor areas of the museum are particularly well-designed: one feels as if standing in a primeval forest. Some motifs were captured here, as if in the dense forest of Yucatan – yet right in the middle of the metropolis of millions.
