VIRSEDA BRAVO, Marta. “Pinturas de los de México”. A Proposed Analysis of the Osuna Codex. Estud. hist. novohisp [online]. 2023, n.68, pp.5-34.  Epub 26-Jun-2023. ISSN 2448-6922.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iih.24486922e.2023.68.77707.

In the middle of the 16th century, licentiate Jerónimo de Valderrama arrived in Mexico City as visitor to the Indies. A small part of that visit has come to us in a documentary corpus traditionally known as the Osuna Codex. It collects the complaints of the native community within the Royal Court in the form of different pictograms. As the Codex was studied more for its administrative character, its material side has been neglected throughout different studies. This article proposes, therefore, to analyse the Osuna Codex from the point of view of codicology and study of the image, in order to try to answer questions regarding the crafting processes, the creators of the Codex, or its journey from the very place of its creation to where it is kept today.

Palavras-chave : Osuna Codex; Legal Manuscripts; Codicology; Book History.
