Incidents of Travel in Yucatan
I enjoyed this YouTube video which combines the music of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Schaherazade with intriguing sketches drawn by Frederick Catherwood used as illustrations in John L. Stephens’s Incidents of Travel in Yucatan, published in 1843. I enjoying seeing some of the ruins I had visited while filming the Yucatan Travel Movie such as the palace at Sayil. Compared to the sketch of the unexcavated ruin which appears to be semi-buried under a hill of dirt, the present-day ruin is lovely.
