Spanish conquerors in armor and with weapons

<< Back to Section

We see in this detail the busts or heads of six Spaniards in armor. They have shoulder-length hair. Their mustaches curl upward on the ends, and they have a small amount of chin hair. The figure on our left has a green feather attached to his helmet. Appearing between the men are the tips of metal lances with what appear to be small arrows making a cross at the top of each one.
