Stonework and headstones

Stonework and headstones

Stonework was strongly practiced by ancient mesoamerican cultures. The bright, surface and toughness made every stone suited for a certain purpose. The elegance in quarry and marble was vital for palaces and for the homes of princes and governors. This noble task spread across the region, bringing life to strong columns, desks, ornamental figures and other items. Stonework is an activity where strength is perfectly mixed with luxury and aesthetics. Stonework is present in sculpture and architecture. Morelia is the perfect example of this with its pink quarry streets.
