EL ESTILO PLÁSTICO DE LOS TECHIALOYAN Y SU RELACIÓN CON LOS ENCONCHADOS
Journal Title: Itinerarios. Revista de estudios lingüísticos, literarios, históricos y antropológicos - Year 2016, Vol 24, Issue
Abstract
In this paper I review the general aspects of a particular corpus of the documentation from New Spain, known as the codices Techialoyan. A special emphasis is put on their painting style, which is one of the elements that served to define this group of documents created between the seventeenth and eighteenth century. Despite the existence of numerous studies on these manuscripts, there have not been many advances concerning the possible referents of these paintings, which diff er greatly from other Mesoamerican codices. These aspects are also related to issues such as the dating of these documents or the identity of their authors. I propose a possible way of analysis of Techialoyan codices through their similarities with the so-called enconchadas paintings, created in workshops in Mexico within the same time span.
