Description
Commemorating the arrival in the Americas of malaria and other diseases that led to the deaths of perhaps 95% of the indigenous population of the two continents. Here in the infamous moment of their meeting, Moctezuma and Cortes are drawn into the fatal dance. The comet was one of eight evil omens foretelling the conquest by the Europeans, as recorded in the Codex Duran.
