EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic "Portrait of Hernan Cortes" painted in 1525 by an anonymous Spanish artist from the 16th century. The painting, displayed at Museo de la Ciudad in Mexico, depicts the renowned Spanish conqueror and explorer, Hernan Cortes (1485-1547). In this remarkable portrait, Cortes is portrayed wearing a striking suit of armor adorned with his coat of arms.
