This print captures the historical figure of Cortes (Liebig), also known as Hernando Cortes, a Spanish conquistador who played a significant role in the conquest of Mexico and led various expeditions during his lifetime. Born in 1485, Cortes is remembered for his daring exploits and military tactics that ultimately resulted in the fall of the Aztec Empire.
Despite his reputation as a ruthless conqueror, Cortes met his end peacefully on his estates in Spain at the age of 62. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the complex legacy left behind by this controversial figure from history.

Through Mary Evans Picture Library's meticulous attention to detail and historical accuracy, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the life and times of one of Spain's most infamous conquistadors.
