design motifs of ancient mexico
by Jorge Enciso

Here is an unusual collection of pictorial material for artists, commercial de- signers, handicraft workers, and at-home hobbyists—766 vigorous primitive designs that will add color and strong, rhythmic lines to textile work, leather- craft, wood and metalwork, advertising art, and other areas where novel decorative ideas arc at a premium. 90% of this material has never before been printed; all of it is copyright free. You may use up to 10 items for any single use without fee or special permission.
The book reproduces plumed serpents, calendrical elements, wind gods, insects, toads, lizards, birds, real and mythological animals, flowers, demons, the human head and figure, and hundreds of abstract ornamental designs derived from carved seals of the Aztec, Maya, Totonac, Zapotec, Olmec, Toltec, and other early Mexican cultures. This book is the finest inexpensive collection of such motifs to be found anywhere.
