The Boban Calendar Wheel

Resumen

The Boban Calendar Wheel is so named because at one time it fonned part of the Eugene Boban Collection. As to its origin, we know only that it was discovered in Texcoco and sent to France in 1867. It is presently in the John Carter Brown Library, Providence. A color litograph was published by Doutrelaine in 1867. A second color lithograph by Genaro López is included with Veytia's seven calendar wheels published in 1907. Although most of the studies and photographic reproductions derive from the Doutrelaine lithograph, the Genaro López lithograph is superior is detail.
