EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "CORTES & MONTEZUMA, 1519" transports us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases the meeting between Montezuma II, the revered emperor of the Aztec Empire, and Hernando Cortes, the Spanish conquistador who played a pivotal role in the Spanish conquest of Mexico. The focal point of this scene is Dona Marina, positioned on the right side of the frame. As an assistant and interpreter for Cortes, she holds immense importance in facilitating communication between these two influential men from different worlds. Her presence symbolizes not only her crucial role as a translator but also highlights her significance as a woman during this time period. The setting itself is awe-inspiring; Tenochtitlan, now known as Mexico City, serves as an impressive backdrop with its grandeur and historical significance. This contemporary Aztec drawing captures both Montezuma II's regal presence seated on his throne and Cortes standing before him. This artwork provides us with a glimpse into Mesoamerican history and Latin American culture during this era of exploration and conquest. It invites us to reflect upon how encounters like these shaped our world today while reminding us of the complex dynamics at play during such meetings between conquerors and indigenous leaders.
