It's Fine Press Friday!
On this final Friday of 2023, we end the year with a slightly different fine-press production, issues 1 and 7 of the Mexican arts journal La Jícara, published in San Crístobal de Las Casas, Chiapas, México by Taller Leñateros in 1994 and 1997. These issues were silkscreen printed on craft paper sprinkled with atol agrio, a characteristic masa-drink of San Cristóbal de las Casas, under the direction of Taller Leñateros founder Amber Past and art director Estela Hernández.
Past, an American-born Mexican poet, founded Taller Leñateros in 1975 as a Mayan book arts collective in Chiapas. La Jícara, which refers to a bowl or cup made from a gourd, was developed as a literary, artistic, and historical journal to preserve and promote Mayan and mestizo culture.

Figurilla femenina en una concha
La Reina Roja, es el nombre que los arqueólogos le otorgaron a la señora sepultada en la tumba del Templo XIII de Palenque, Chiapas. Al momento de su muerte, el personaje fue colocado al interior de un sarcófago de piedra caliza y su cuerpo fue recubierto con polvo de cinabrio, un mineral rojo carmesí difícil de conseguir que sólo se utilizaba en pequeñas cantidades
Como parte de su ofrenda funeraria se depositó cerca de su cabeza una concha marina (Spondylus calcifer), la cual contenía una figurilla de piedra con la representación de una mujer elegantemente ataviada, quizá un retrato de la propia reina.
Tras su descubrimiento en 1994, ahora se sabe que el nombre de la Reina Roja era Ixik Tz’aka’ab Ajaw, o “Señora Gobernante de las Generaciones”.
