Petén Miscellanea: Monuments from Five Sites

Corpus Volume 11 presents a potpourri of monuments photographed by Bruce Love on various trips to Petén between 2016 and 2019 and subsequently drawn and inked by him in 2020. Love thanks Bernard “Bernie” Mittelstaedt for assistance at the municipio of San Andrés. All other photography for this Corpus Volume was done by Love alone.
