EDITORS COMMENTS
**Conquest of Mexico: A Landmark Moment in History**
This stunning print depicts a pivotal moment in history - the Conquest of Mexico. In 1519, Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés arrived on Mexican soil, marking the beginning of a tumultuous era that would forever alter the course of both nations' histories.
As seen here, Cortés and his men are shown arriving at Tenochtitlán (modern-day Mexico City), where they were greeted by Aztec Emperor Moctezuma II. The scene is one of tension and uncertainty, as the two cultures clashed in a struggle that would ultimately lead to the downfall of the Aztecs.
The print itself is a masterclass in chromolithography, with vibrant colors bringing this momentous event to life. Created using an early 20th-century technique known as Liebig cards, it's a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of its creators. This image not only serves as a window into the past but also reminds us of the complex and often fraught relationships between cultures that have shaped our world.
