Jean-Baptiste Fuzier: del vómito negro al arte precolombino

espanolDurante la guerra de Intervencion en 1862-1867, el doctor Fuzier, director del hospital militar frances de Veracruz, aprovecho su tiempo libre para excavar y dibujar una cantidad importante de piezas arqueologicas, desde vestigios mayores como la cabeza olmeca de Tres Zapotes, hasta figurillas y restos oseos. El manuscrito que dejo permite poco a poco ubicar y documentar una cantidad importante de objetos olvi-dados, que con frecuencia forman parte de colecciones publicas, tanto en museos europeos como mexicanos o estadounidenses. El presente articulo pretende dar una muestra de las aportaciones de este manus-crito todavia inedito. EnglishDuring the French Intervention in Mexico in 186-1867, doctor Fuzier, then responsible of the French military hospital at Veracruz, engaged his spare time excavating and drawing an important corpus of archaeo-logical objects, from well known major pieces, such as the Olmec colos-sal head from Tres Zapotes to minor figurines and even bones and skulls. The manuscript he left us allows slowly locating and documen-ting an important corpus of forgotten objects that frequently are part of public collections, in European, American and Mexican museums. The present paper aims to present a significant sample of what this still unpublished manuscript can provide.
