EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history as Spanish conquistadors, accompanied by their native Tlazcalan allies, launch an attack on an Aztec temple. The scene is filled with tension and action, as the conquistadors clash with the defenders of the temple in a fierce battle.
The detailed drawing, a copy of a section of drawings from the lost Lienzo de Tlazcala during the Mexican revolution, offers a glimpse into the conquest of Mexico and the clash of civilizations that defined this period. The conquistadors are depicted in their distinctive armor and helmets, wielding swords and shields against their Aztec adversaries.
The presence of Tlazcalan allies highlights the complex alliances that were formed during this tumultuous time, as indigenous groups navigated shifting power dynamics to protect their own interests. The vibrant colors used in this artwork bring to life the drama and intensity of this historical event.
