Visions of Empire:
Picturing the Conquest in Colonial Mexico
The exhibition Visions of Empire: Picturing
the Conquest in Colonial Mexico provides, for the first
time in the United States, a venue for a group of important
historical paintings documenting the conquest of a new territory
– the Americas. This exhibition, which also includes
selected Aztec artworks, illustrates the presence of a culturally
rich pre-conquest society. It was the mixture of European
and native cultures that ultimately created the culture we
now know as Mexican.
