De la mujer que fuera lengua y madre de un hijo de Cortés, Bernal Díaz nos ofrece una visión paradigmática. Marina no es una mujer de carne y hueso sino un personaje monolítico, sin contradicciones y lejano. (…) Bernal Díaz, (…), la crea a su imagen y semejanza: la dota de porte bíblico, de una voz magdalénica y de un pasado occidental. Y al inventarla así, la hace ingresar en la historia occidental muda y pétrea, un instrumento de la Providencia…. <span style="font-size: xx-small;">1</span><br />

Por ello ha sido un verdadero reto crear, replantear este personaje, y desarrollarlo en trama, tratando de entenderlo y dotarle de una psique, establecer sus motivaciones. Poco se habla de ella en los registros y crónicas, y si tenemos alguna descripción siempre es así, como se explica arriba, según el ojo de quien lo describe, y según sus propósitos; para enaltecerla o denigrarla...<br />

Bernal Díaz show us a paradigmatic vision of the woman who was the <i>lengua </i>and mother Cortés son. Marina is not a flesh and blood woman but a monolithic and a distant character, without contradictions (…) Bernal Díaz, (…), creates her character in his image and likeness: he endows her with a biblical bearing, a magdalenic voice and a western past. And by inventing her like this, she enters into the mute and stony western history, an instrument of Providence….1<br />

For the above descriptions, it has been a real challenge to create, to rethink and develop this character into a plot as well as trying to understand it and endow it with a psyche to establish its motivations. Little is said about this character in records and chronicles, and if any description is found, it is likely a biased description without much historical background, either to exalt or denigrate her ...<br />

Dado el papel que desarrolla dentro de la trama la elección de su aspecto es la de un espíritu en conflicto, atormentado tal vez; sus cabellos sueltos y algo revueltos deben reflejar esto. Su alma se mueve entre dos lealtades y cree que las cosas deben ser de una forma distintas a las que están impuestas. Desea un cambio para su pueblo y su ciudad. Por ello que para reflejarlo visualmente su símbolo es el de movimiento, el <i>ollin</i>, y lo lleva en casi todos sus adornos como puede verse en la ilustración.<br />

the role he plays within the plot, his appearance is that of a spirit in

different from what is imposed. He wants a change for his town and his city.
For this reason, to visually reflect it, his symbol is movement, the “<i>ollin</i>”
and he bears it in almost all his decorations, as can be noticed in the

Nace alrededor del 1500 en <b>Oluta</b>, según se cree, una población cerca de Coatzacoalcos (Veracruz) en el seno de una familia de clase alta mexica. Fue vendida por su madre como esclava y tras unas contiendas entre mayas y mexicas esta terminó al servicio de Tascoob, cacique maya de <b>Tabasco</b>.<br />
<br />
Poco después Malinalli fue obsequiada a Cortés, junto a 18 mujeres más, oro y un juego de mantas, como parte del tributo ofrecido por los tabasqueños al ser derrotados por los castellanos en la batalla de Centla (14 de marzo de 1519). Cortés, que no se sintió atraído por ella en u principio, la ofreció como mujer a su capitán <b>Portocarrero</b>. Cuando este partió a España Cortés la retuvo a su lado por su valor como intérprete entre las lenguas maya y náhuatl. <b>Junto a Jerónimo de Aguilar</b>, que conocía el maya, y Malinalli el náhuatl, Cortés pudo comunicarse con los mexicas hasta que Malinalli, que ya para entonces la habían bautizado bajo el nombre cristiano de Marina, aprendió el castellano.<br />

<br />
Poco más diré de ella que no se pueda encortar en la red y en numerosas bibliografías sobre el tema. Sin embargo señalaré que su figura es tanto un símbolo de la traición a su raza, una víctima de las circunstancias o la imagen de la madre de la nueva cultura mestiza.<br />
<br />
Por mi parte, como hice con muchos personajes polémicos de la conquista, recabé información de diferentes fuentes y analicé en profundidad las circunstancias de Malinalli y el por qué actuó como lo hizo, y la doté de su propia psique desarrollándola a lo largo de la novela, desvelando poco a poco, según mi propio criterio, las motivaciones que la mueven dentro de la trama y brindando, tal vez, una nueva versión de doña Marina. ¡Y no os diré más!<br />
<br />
Lo que sí puedo decir por ahora es el proceso creativo para dar imagen a este personaje tan enigmático. Y como siempre haremos un poco de historia iconográfica sobre el aspecto que pudo tener Malinalli.<br />

Como podemos ver en las imágenes del lienzo de Tlaxcala, y en muchas otras ilustraciones, se la ve vestida con el <i>huipilli</i>, la túnica que se llevaba sobre los hombros y caía sobre el cuerpo, casi siempre a la altura de las rodillas, y bajo ésta el <i>cueitl</i>, la falda que envolvía el cuerpo y que se enrollaba en la cintura, de una sola pieza y sin costuras, cuyo largo también variaba según quien lo llevara. Estas son las prendas básicas del vestido femenino. El pelo, en estas representaciones, lo lleva suelto, largo y lacio, aunque hay otras en las que se la ve con el típico peinado náhualt de las mujeres. Y en cuanto a su rostro es sencillo, una idealización estereotipada del artista más que un retrato.<br />
<br />
Estas son las referencias visuales, amén de la cantidad de documentación existente en cuanto a cómo vestían las mujeres de esas regiones. Pero una gran referencia para desarrollar el personaje de Malinalli, su parte psíquica, es la lady Macbeth de <b>Akira Kurosawa</b>, la señora Asaji Washizu.<br />

Malinalli
was born around 1500 in <b>Oluta</b>, believed to be a town near Coatzacoalcos
(Veracruz), in the bosom of a Mexican upper-cast family. She was sold by her
mother as a slave, and after skirmish between Mayas and Mexicas, she ended up
in the service of a certain Tascoob, a Mayan chief of <b>Tabasco</b>.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"> Shortly
after, Malinalli was presented to Cortés -- along with 18 other women, gold and
a set of blankets -- as part of the tribute offered by the Tabasco people once
defeated by the Castilians at the Battle of Centla (March 14, 1519). Cortés,
who was not attracted to her, offered her to his captain,
<b>Portocarrero</b>. When Portocarrero left for Spain, Cortés kept her at his side
because of her value as an interpreter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Together with <b>Jerónimo de Aguilar</b>, who understood the Mayan language,
Malinalli’s ability to speak both the Nahuatl and Mayan languages allowed </span>Cortés to
communicate with the Mexicas.
Eventually, Malinalli, baptized with the Christian name of Marina, would
learn Castilian as well.</div>

As the Lienzo de Tlaxcala reveals, as well as in
other illustrations, she is seen wearing the <i>huipilli, </i>the tunic worn on the
shoulders. This tunic falls over the
body, almost always at knee level. Immediately below it appears the <i>cueitl</i>, a
seamless, one-piece skirt that wrapped the body and rolled up at the
waist. The length varied according to
whom was wearing it. These are the basic
pieces of the feminine dress. The hair, in these representations, is loose,
long and straight, although there are others in which she is seen with the
typical Nahualt hairstyle. As for her face, it is simple, a stereotypical
idealization of the artist rather than a portrait. </div>

"<b>Throne of Blood</b>," Kurosawa introduces us to this fascinating
character who acts almost without moving and who unleashes the entire tragedy

intriguing voice, saying exactly the words that will lead others to do her will
without exposing her deep passions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This

Como podéis ver en cada <i>xiuhuitzolli </i>de cada señor mexica he decidido poner el glifo de cada señorío confeccionado en piedras preciosas, jades, turquesas, coral e incrustaciones de oro; en este caso corresponde al glifo de Iztapalapan o Iztapalapa, de donde era señor Cuauhtlahuac.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Cuauhtlahuac es en la novela el otro antagonista de Motecuhzoma, su hermano. Si este es la facción conservadora, estática, eterna e inamovible de los mexicas, Cuauhtahuac desea el cambio, el desafío, un nuevo gobierno, por lo que entre sus adornos figura mucho el símbolo mexica del movimiento; <i>Ollin*</i>.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Para esta nueva etapa he decidido probar entintar los lápices digitalmente a ver que tal el resultado, principalmente para ganar más en tiempo y experimentar nuevas técnicas. Aquí abajo os dejo una muestra en progreso así me dais vuestra opinión....</div>

Well,
resuming my work I present you an additional main character in the plot of the
conquest, the emperor's brother, Cuauhtlahuac, better known as Cuitláhuac. Hugh Thomas
mentions him among the <i>huey tlatoani</i> advisers: "Moctezuma met again with his supreme
council. Among those present were, as usual, his brother Cuitláhuac, and his
nephew Cacama, king of Texcoco." * La Conquista de Mexico, pag . 373

Para diseñarlo me inspiré en la tristemente célebre episodio de La Matanza del Templo Mayor que, entre otras cosas acrecentó la fama de Alvarado como el conqistador sangriento de la que hablamos en entradas anteriores.</div>

At least here it is the Pedro de Alvarado concep character banner. I find the time to finished and be proud to show you. I'm inspired in that sad episode of teh Conquista called La Matanza del Templo Mayor (the Slaughter of the Great Temple) and give to Alvarado his fame as the Bloody Conquistador.

Como he mencionado en anteriores entradas la pieza labial o <i>bezote</i> que llevaban los hombres de la nobleza y reyes decidí hacerla opcional por cuestiones de diseño. En el caso de Cacamatzin, la incorporé en su diseño para reflejar un carácter rebelde e impetuoso apelando a las criterios actuales. Realizada en oro tiene la forma de la cabeza de un águila, símbolo de la realeza mexica, de ambición y dinamismo frente a la dubitativa actitud de si tío Moctezuma.<br />

As well as Motecuhzoma concept art, the tiara design represent the Texcoco city gliph made in turquoise mosaics with gold and coral scales.<br />

As known that <i>tilmatli</i>, the coats worn every mexica men, was pieces tie over the right shoulder or in front and, in the case of noblemen and high dignataries, was made in cotton and lavishly designed with colorful feathers, shells, gemstones, vivid colors and seals prints, jade plates, and others precious materials.<br />

As noted on previous spots the underlip piece or <i>bezote</i> worn by the nobilty and kings I decide to be optinal depending the character and intention of design. In this case I used because Cacamatzin, as rebel, younger and impetuous man must wear, as be used in our time. Made in gold have a eagle shape head, mexica royal symbol, ambition and dynamism representation by contrast his uncle Motecuhzoma hesitant behavior.</div>

Ahora estoy revisando el guión, las innumerables carpetas de imágenes y texto que poseo para saber donde está cada cosa. Una labor muy compleja que retomo con gran entusiasmo deseando llevar a buen puerto este proyecto.<br />
<br />
Y más aun después de comprobar que el interés de los seguidores se mantiene a pesar de este lapsus. Algunos preguntándome para cuándo va a estar lista la novela, otros felicitándome por mi arte... Y otros, como el señor <b>David Nievas</b>, administrador de la pagina de Facebook "La Conquista de Mexico" el cual amablemente me solicitó algunos de mis trabajos para ilustrar sus artículos ( <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/273154999966224/">https://www.facebook.com/groups/273154999966224/</a> ). Desde aquí agradezco profundamente su interés por mi trabajo.<br />
<br />
Esta pagina está resultando una gran fuente de información histórica y documental así como también de referencias visuales que puedo utilizar para este proyecto. Y en este sentido debo indicar también que el señor <b>Nievas </b>me ha hecho una agradable revelación; la novela gráfica "<i>Aztec Empire</i>", escrita por <a href="https://www.bigredhair.com/about/biographies/paul-guinan/"><b>Paul Guinan</b></a>, y dibujada por <b><a href="http://helioscopepdx.com/david-hahn/">David Hahn</a></b> ( <a href="https://www.bigredhair.com/books/aztec-empire/about/">https://www.bigredhair.com/books/aztec-empire/about/</a> , <a href="https://twitter.com/AztecEmpire1520?lang=es">https://twitter.com/AztecEmpire1520?lang=es</a> ).<br />

Hasta ahora solo llevan cuatro capítulos los cuales he leído y debo indicar que me ha gustado. Es un trabajo muy colorido, dinámico y luminoso, con una narración fluida y explicativa, bien documentada, y que hasta ahora no lo había visto en otras publicaciones sobre el tema y que he mencionado en entradas anteriores. ¡Bravo por el trabajo de estos señores!<br />
<br />
Todo esto me indica que el tema de la conquista de Mexico está en el aire y que hay mucho interés sobre el mismo, lo que me dice que no estoy desencaminado del todo, como un colega me señaló una vez: "A nadie le interesa ya la conquista de Mexico"...<br />

After one year have posting no entry in this blog take a lot of work take things back againg. I'm cheking the script, the countless image and reference folders I have to known where is every thing. A complex task that I eagerness reassume with in oreder to fulfill this project. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And even more I realize many people and friends keep the interest on it despite my absence. Some people asking me when it will be finished, others congratulating for my work... And others as mister <b>David Nievas</b>, Facebook administrator page "The Conquest of Mexico", who kindly asked me permission to upload some images and drawings to illustrate his articles ( <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/273154999966224/">https://www.facebook.com/groups/273154999966224/</a> ).

<div style="text-align: left;">
At this moment they have published only four chapters already I'd read and must to say it 's very colourful, dynamic and fresh, with a very fluently and descriptive narration, well documented, as no others comics and graphic novels before, and I'd mention in previous post. ¡Great work, gentelmen!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
All this show me that the Conquest of Mexico is a topic still running in the air, that interest to many people, and that I'm going in the path, as one day somebody tell me: "Nobody care about the Conquest of Mexico today"...</div>

Para <b>Don Pedro de Alvarado</b>, uno de los principales capitanes de Cortés, y que jugará un rol decisivo en los sucesos que acontecerán en Tenochtitlan, decidí dotarle de una recia armadura de estilo <b>Maximiliano</b>. Estas armaduras, mezcla entre las de estilo aleman e italiano, se empezaron a fabricar a principios del<b> siglo XVI </b>y aunque es poco probable que las usaran los castellanos en América tampoco es imposible que alguno llevara una.</div>

Eran piezas caras y muy elaboradas lo que me llevó a elegir este estilo para Alvarado. Don Pedro era uno de los pocos capitanes hijodalgos que poseía cierto grado de solvencia económica lo que le permitiría tener toda una panoplia algo más preciosa que el resto, incluyendo su daga y su espada, de puro acero <b>Toledano </b>y recia empuñadura con una calavera en su pomo, símbolo de su espíritu despiadado y temerario. </div>

Así expreso por medio de la forma el espíritu del personaje; un noble de cuna, algo refinado pero despiadado en la guerra, amante del buen vestir y buen conversador pero bajo su dura mirada puede percibirse su ascendencia medieval. Usando líneas elegantes, sencillas sin ser simples, con volumenes rotundos, algo bastos, fuertes, casi brutales, y dotando a las piezas de un brillo opoaco, casi siniestro. </div>

Ese caracter también tenía que ser expresado en la elección de los colores que debería llevar en su armamento y vestido. Tras un poco de meditación y pruebas decidí teñirle las piezas de metal de negro, como solían hacer los conquistadores con sus armaduras para evitar que el acero de calentase bajo los ardientes rayos del <b>Caribe</b>. Y siendo un contraste interesante el rojo y el negro le vestí con un jubón carmín bajo la armadura, y botas y guantes de piel a juego.<br />
<br />
Como remate al traje de guerra de Don Pedro de Alvarado, y en la línea de los capitanes de la expedición de Cortés, diseño una borgoñota de tres crestas más propia del siglo XVII que del XVI; licencia que me permito para los capitanes cortesianos...<br />

Tanto este como la armadura aunque inspirados en modelos reales resultan una mezcla de diferentes piezas en busca de adaptarlas al carácter e idiosincracia de cada personaje. La armadura Maximiliano, por ejemplo, lleva unas escarcelas y quijotes medievales. Es también una forma de representar la transición que se iba operando a principios de XVI en el vestir tanto en el ambito civil como militar.</div>

good conversationalist although under his eyes we can feeling some brutal
medieval ancestry. Using elegant lines, plain but not simple, with rounded,
some large, stronger volumes, almost thrilling, giving to the cuirass surface a
matt, some sinister shine.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"> The same
guideline was used to choice the color of the garments. After several tests I use
black stain to the cuirass, as used by the Conquistadores on their amours to prevent
the steel become overheat under the <b>Caribbean </b>sun. And the scarlett doublet
because the red and black is a dramatic combination to give a interesting
contrast... all this go with leather gloves and boots.</span><br />

<br />
Son of the previous Tezcuco tlatoani, <b>Nezahualpilli, </b>and one of each Moctezuma sisters, Chalchiuhnenetzin, Cacamatzin was the Mexica emperor's nephew.<br />
<br />
This character will resist to Conquistadores, and against his uncle. Tezcuco usually elected his own lords or tlatoani. They used to choose them from the most qualify royal family members. In the Cacamatzin election (1515) the height of Moctezuma influence played a important role; in this way the emperor can be sure to mantain this allied city under his control. To the texcocan nobleness, and as well as Cacamatzin, this meddling was intolerable; he had against him the Tezcuco nobleness. <br />
<br />
Cacamatzin will try to gain his people opposing the emperor and.... the Conquistadores.<br />

<b>Cacamatzin</b>, o <b>Cacama</b>, (1483 - 1520) como le llamaron los castellanos, fue tlatoani de la vecina ciudad de <b>Tezcuco</b> (Texcoco), aliada de Tenochtitlan la cual, junto con <b>Tlacopan</b>, formaban la temida <b>Triple Alianza</b> Mexica.<br />
<br />
Cacamatzin fue hijo del anterior soberano de Tetzcuco, <b>Nezahualpilli</b>, y una de las hermanas de Moctezuma, Chalchiuhnenetzin, y sobrino del emperador de los mexica.<br />
<br />
Este personaje encarnará una de las primeras resistencias contra los conquistadores, y contra su propio tío. Tezcuco elegía a sus señores o tlatoani de entre los más capacitados de la familia real gobernante. En la elección de Cacamatzin en 1515 la presión de Moctezuma jugó un papel determinante; de esta manera el emperador podría mantener bajo control a esta ciudad aliada. A la nobleza texcocana, y al propio Cacamatzin, tal situación no les gustaba ni un pelo; tenía en contra a la nobleza de su ciudad. <br />
<br />
Cacamatzin buscará ganarse a unos oponiéndose a su tío , el emperador, y a los conquistadores....<br />

He likes wear good clothes and a gold chain on the neck and rings in his fingers...</em>"<span style="font-size: xx-small;">1</span><br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"></span><br />
According to <strong>Díaz del Castillo</strong> he has long hair in the time of the Conquista, contrary to the portraits we known of him, which probably painted after that time.<br />
<br />
With all this facts I had made my own version of the Bloody Conquistador; skilled dressing, as he can, long hair, handsome and cruel, his sword reflect all this qualities...<br />

<strong> Pedro de Alvarado</strong> era, como otros capitanes en la campaña de Cortés, "<em>caballeros castellanos, hidalgos</em> (...) <em>de buena familia (de la pequeña nobleza con escudo, pero sin dinero</em>" según Thomas, que continúa; "<em>contaría unos treinta y cinco años y era de buen cuerpo, alegre, encantador, cortés y guapo; además, valiente, impulsivo y cruel; siempre parecía sonreír; era buen conversador, si bien indiscreto. Le gustaba la ropa fina y lucía una cadena de oro en el cuello y anillos en los dedos</em>..."<span style="font-size: xx-small;">1</span><br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"></span><br />
Y según <strong>Bernal Díaz</strong>, llevaba el pelo largo durante la campaña de conquista, contrario a la imagen que aparece en los retratos que de él se conservan, con seguridad posteriores a esta.<br />
<br />
Tomando todo esto en cuenta he realizado mi versión del conquistador sangriento; apañado en el vestir, como pudiera, de cabellos largos, atractivo y cruel, y con un diseño de espada que reflejara su carácter: vistosa pero basta.<br />

In the school the kids learn about the Conquista and its paradigm of cruelty and barbarism are that commited by Alvarado and his men.

<br />
<strong> Pedro de Alvarado y Contreras</strong> was born in Badajoz, Extremadura, in 1485, passing over to America with 27 years old. According to Bernal Díaz the Conquistador Extremeño had "good body and good size proportions, and the face and image very cheerful, and a lovely look, and to be so good-looking the indians calls him Tonatio, what its mean The Sun (...) and in his dress he was very refined and with costly and riches clothes...", its mean our man , despite his fame of cruel, was handsome and blond; he must be to caught that kind of attention from the mexica people and be worthy to be call <strong>Tonatiuh</strong> / The Sun in Nahua tongue.<br />
<br />
Beauty and cruelty have a suggestive power than become a interesting characterization process.<br />

"Si hay un personaje denostado por la historia oficial es Pedro de Alvarado, el capitán extremeño conquistador de Guatemala. Desde el primer contacto de los niños con la historia se les enseña, como prototipo de crueldad, las barbaridades cometidas por Alvarado y sus huestes. Los historiadores coinciden en destacar su salvajismo."<span style="font-size: xx-small;">1</span><br />
<br />
<strong>Pedro de Alvarado y Contreras</strong> nació en Badajoz, Extremadura, en 1485, pasando a América con 27 años. Según Bernal Díaz el conquistador extremeño era "<em>de muy buen cuerpo y bien aproporcionado, y tenía el rostro y cara muy alegre, e en el mirar muy amoroso, y por ser tan agraciado le pusieron por nombre los indios mejicanos Tonatio, que quiere decir el sol (...) y en vestirse era muy polido y con ropas costosas e ricas</em>...", vamos que a pesar de su cruel fama al parecer el hombre era muy guapo y rubio; tenía que serlo para que de entre todos los conquistadores que pasaron a Tenochtitlan fuese el único al que los mexica bautizaron <strong>Tonatiuh</strong> / el Sol.<br />
<br />
Belleza y crueldad es una mezcla sugestiva por lo que recrear un personaje de estas características devino en un proceso muy interesante. <br />

Para mi versión de Alvarado tomé en cuenta dos factores importantes presentes en la versión de Díaz del Castillo: lo agraciado y bien proporcionado del físico, y la riqueza de su modo de vestir... incluyendo esa mirada cruel.<br />

Let's see, a whole<strong> iconographic programme</strong> worth been study and theorized. Even for a modest draftsman like me its necessary contemplate a iconographic programme for each one of that shrines. But now, and given that just we can see in the actual cartoon part of the entrance with the columns, I made a little study for the decoration of that architectural component.<br />
<br />
Considering the nature of the god which is dedicated the shrine, his attribute, the kind of worship play there, and the artistic/aesthetic ancient Mexica sense, and some images from the <strong>Nuttall</strong> and <strong>Borgia</strong> <strong>Codex</strong>; some figures from the "<strong>Teocalli de la Guerra Sagrada" </strong>(Sacred War Teocalli) monolith; and some mexica sculptures, I made the next image.<br />

En la primera viñeta de la página (entrada anterior) vemos como los castellanos salen de la capilla de <strong>Huitzilopochtli</strong> en estado de estupor. La capilla de Huitzilopochtli, en lo alto del <strong>Templo Mayor</strong> de <strong>Tenochtitlan</strong>, estaría decorada "con ricos colores, texturas, y esculturas y pinturas integradas en la estructura. (...) Elementos decorativos y simbólicos se verían sobre la fachada oeste, incluyendo jambas, dinteles, los marcos de los tableros, y el interior de las capillas".<span style="font-size: xx-small;">1.</span><br />

Vamos, todo un programa iconográfico digno de ser estudiado y teorizado. Incluso para un humilde dibujante como yo sería necesario plantear un <strong>programa iconográfico</strong> para cada una de esas capillas. Por lo pronto, y dado lo que solo se puede ver de dicha capilla, en la viñeta actual, las columnas de la entrada, he decidido realizar un prototipo para su decoración.<br />
<br />
Tomando en cuenta el dios al que está dedicada dicha capilla, sus atributos y naturaleza, el culto rendido a el, y el sentido <strong>artístico/estético</strong> de los antiguos mexica, y tomando por referencia algunas imágenes de los códices <strong>Nuttall</strong> y <strong>Borgia</strong>; algunas figuras del "<strong>Teocalli de la Guerra Sagrada</strong>"; y figuras labradas en piedra de los mexica, he concebido la decoración de dichas columnas como pueden apreciar en la siguiente imagen.<br />

I have a lot of work which keep me so bussy and without strong at the end of the day. Nevertheless today I decide to put that things on the side and upload my first complete cartoon.<br />
Represents one of the moments when the two cultures collide; Motecuhzoma invites to Cortés to the top of the Main Temple where it is the Huitzilopochtli effigy in spite the priest disapproval. The Castillians, horrify for that they see inside, run away the chapel. Cortés then tell off Motecuhzoma to be a idols worshiper.<br />

Quiero pedir disculpas por no escribir nada en tantos meses, más de lo que me hubiese gustado. El volumen de trabajo me tiene secuestrado y las energías me faltan al final de la jornada. Sin embargo hoy me propuse aparcar aquellas cosas y subir mi primera viñeta dibujada.<br />
Representa uno de los momentos en los cuales se ilustra perfectamente el choque de dos culturas; Moctezuma, a pesar de sus sacerdotes, invita a Cortés a entrar en el santuario de Huitzilopochtli. Los castellanos, espantados de lo que allí ven, salen corriendo de la capilla. Cortés entonces increpa a Moctezuma por adorar a dioses falsos.<br />

La monarquía mexica alcanzó su cénit con <strong>Moctezuma II Xocoyotzin</strong>, un rey absoluto que reinó en medio de lujos y placeres inimaginables. Residía en un enorme palacio con jardines, zoológicos y estanques artificiales, 150 concubinas y muchos sirvientes. Puesto que nadie podía mirarle comía solo tras un biombo, sus súbditos y ministros debían descalzarse en su presencia y tocar el suelo con la frente, y nunca darle la espalda. Solo su viceemperador, el <em>cihuacoatl,</em> podía actuar de intermediario entre él y los hombres. Como rey y señor absoluto de la tierra levantó grandes monumentos, conquisto muchos territorios y realizó <strong>cambios gubernamentales y políticos dentro de la sociedad y la religión</strong>. <br />

He lived in a large palace with gardens, zoos and artificial ponds, 150 concubines and lots of servants. As well no one can look at His face he eat alone behind a folding screen, his subjects and ministers must to remove they shoes before him and touch the floor with they forehead, and never give their back to him. Only his viceemperor, the <em>cihuacoatl,</em> can act as intermediary between He and the men. As King and sole ruler of the Earth rised great monuments, conquered many territories and <strong>made governmental and political changes in the Mexica society and the clergy.</strong><br />

Moctezuma fue coronado emperador por elección el año 1-Cocodrilo (1502), a los 36 años. Se le coloca en la cabeza la tiara turquesa o <em>xiuhuitzolli</em>. También una nariguera turquesa, la <em>xiuhtlalpilli</em> <em>tilmahtli</em> (capa reticulada teñida de azul y adornada con piedras turquesas), el sello real (ornamento de concha y plumas que portaría en su brazo izquierdo), las sandalias doradas, un escudo, un <em>macahuitl</em> y un haz de dardos, todos símbolos de poder real y judicial. Estos ornamentos de color azul y turquesa le vinculaban con el anciano dios del fuego <strong>Xiuhtecuhtli</strong>, padre y madre de todas las deidades que moraban en el centro del universo.<br />

Yo he optado por un Moctezuma sin barba, sin nariguera ni bezote por una cuestión de gusto simplemente. Este Moctezuma es el que aparecerá en el prólogo de la novela cuando se le revelan los sorprendentes prodigios que anuncian el advenimiento de los conquistadores europeos.</div>

La tiara o <em>xiuhuitzolli </em>es un elemento que en un momento se me antojó simple, bastante básico como diseño por lo que lo enriquecí con un diseño geometrizante en mosaico de turquesas que representa a <strong>Quetzalcóatl</strong> en su advocación de <strong>Ehecatl</strong>. Quetzalcóatl-Ehecatl es el dios del viento, "de la vida, de la sabiduría y del sacerdocio [...] benefactor y el padre de la humanidad [..]." <br />

De allí que lo lleve sobre la cabeza simbolizando estas cualidades. Quetzalcóatl es también símbolo de realeza y gobierno puesto que el gran gobernante de la mítica <strong>Tollán</strong>, de quienes los mexica se creían herederos directos, fue <strong>Ce Acatl Topiltzin Quetzalcóatl</strong>, semidios fundador y rey de dicha ciudad. Su representación es la sagrada serpiente emplumada; <em>quetzal</em> (el ave de plumas de esmeralda) y <em>coatl</em> (serpiente en náhuatl), la "serpiente quetzal". <br />

La diadema que sirve de base a la tiara es una serpiente emplumada labrada en oro que se fija a la cabeza por medio de una banda carmesí anudada a la nuca rematada por un penacho de plumas turquesas.<br />
<br />
Turquesas también son las cuentas de su amplio collar con incrustaciones de jade, oro, corales y conchas rojas, inspirados en motivos del Disco Solar; los eslabones de su cinturón son de turquesa pulida con discos de oro y conchas rojas; su muñequera de mosaicos turquesa con el emblema del disco solar engastado en oro y nácar; y los bordes de sus sandalias compuestos de cuentas rectangulares de turquesas, hilo de oro, nácar y cascabeles dorados.<br />

Y es que para los aztecas la turquesa simbolizaba el azul del agua, del cielo durante el día, dominio del sol <strong>Tonatiuh</strong> y de <strong>Huitzilopochtli</strong>, dios tutelar de Tenochtitlan. Turquesas como el jade simbolizaban la belleza de la vida y de la divinidad del rey y de los seres celestiales. Jade son su muñequera derecha y sus orejeras engastadas por una serpiente emplumada de oro cuyos cascabeles cae sobre los hombros del monarca.<br />
<br />
Para el diseño de su <em>xicolli</em> elegí el símbolo de las estrellas para representar el cielo nocturno herido por el prodigio que perturbará el resto de su vida. Es la negrura de su ánimo, la sombra de lo funesto que opacará su alma representado visualmente en esta imagen.<br />
<br />
La serpiente emplumada, Quetzalcóatl, también tiene su presencia como símbolos y emblemas del soberano en los brazaletes y perneras labradas en oro. Su diseño lo tomé de las representaciones en piedra del llamado Relieve del Acueducto y de colosal cabeza de Coyolxauhqui.<br />

La gran piedad y devoción hacia los dioses que profesaba Moctezuma lo represento en el remate de su <em>maxtlatl</em>; una pieza de mosaico en conchas, oro y nácar que conforman el emblema de la bola de heno del sacrificio (<em>zacatapayolli)</em>.

Y ya por ultimo su <em>tilmatli </em>(capa) de plumas azules con bordes en cuentas de coral y ojos de nácar. Va anudado sobre el pecho con un broche cilíndrico de oro labrado. Este elemento del diseño fue una de las cosas que tuve claro desde el principio. Solo el emperador puede portar plumas de ese color; es el color de la realeza, de los dioses celestes; es el color del sur, reino del dios tutelar de Mexico-Tenochtitlan: Huitzilopochtli, el sol del mediodía, el colibrí del sur, y principal guía de los mexica.</div>

Pues bien, esta cita de Díaz del Castillo nos da una breve idea de la labor que tengo entre manos a la hora de recrear al soberano de los mexica; un hombre pulcro y limpio que tendría un gran surtido de ropajes y joyas que lucir cada día pero, ¿cómo eran estas ropas, atuendos y accesorios?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Para ello consulté unos cuantos textos al respecto para estudiar y conocer en profundidad el aspecto y la indumentaria de los mexica en aquella época. Hay que señalar desde ya que entre las ropas de la clase común y la de los nobles existía una diferencia de material de manufactura; los <em>macehualtin</em> lo llevaban confeccionado en fibra de <em>maguey</em>, sin adornos, y la de los <em>pipiltin</em> de algodón y ricamente ornamentados.<br />

La segunda pieza de vestido mexica masculino era el <em>tilmatli</em>, una especie de capa o manto que se anudaba sobre el hombro derecho o sobre el pecho. Los nobles podían, además del algodón, poseer <em>tilmatli</em> de otros materiales como pieles, o decorados profusamente con piedras preciosas o plumas. La nobleza más rancia podía usar dos capas incluso o llevar sobre el cuerpo una especie de camisa de algodón con bordados y dibujos estampados, el <em>xicolli</em>. Este será un rasgo distintivo fundamental a la hora de recrear a los nobles y a los <em>macehualtin</em> o gente del pueblo; los unos llevaran esta camisa y los otros tendrán el torso desnudo.<br />

En cuanto a los accesorios, tanto hombres como mujeres lucían "alhajas, pendientes, collares, pulseras, tobilleras, brazaletes, etc." También era normal usar narigueras muy elaboradas y vistosas, y bezotes bajo el labio inferior de tamaños y formas más variadas, todos ellos fabricados en piedras preciosas, ámbar u oro, y lucidos solo por los altos dignatarios reales. Aparte de los consabidos adornos del pelo como los penachos o <em>quetzalilpiloni</em> y que se solían llevar de diferentes formas.

And now going over the Roman Holy Empire Emperor to that one of Anahuac, of the sacred Tenochtitlan, <strong>Motecuhzoma Xocoyotzin</strong>, better know as Motecuhzoma II.<br />
<br />
I'm not talk about his bio here because internet have lot of sites which do it so, if you want to known more about the Mexica Emperor you can check them.<br />
<br />
To me Motecuhzoma is the most represented precolumbian king in the iconographic history. It's enough to introduce his name in Google to obtain lots of images, portraits and engravings which illustrated, or trying to do, this emperor, all of them idealized.<br />

Obviously its not a portrait as we understand today because the ancient mexica no had that concept before the european arrive. We can say that they, similar to egyptians, had some iconographics conventions to depict their rulers and only by power symbols, emblems, insignia and name glyphs they differentiate one from anothers. Here Motecuhzoma is reprfesented as god Xipe Totec. The draw below is based on the escarved rest chisel on the andesite stone at the base of Chapultepec hills, in Mexico city. That place was the site where the sovereigns of Tenochtitlan usually made his portraits.<br />
<br />
An early description of the mexica Huey Tlatoani is find in the <strong>Crónica de la Nueva España </strong>by Cervantes de Salazar, XVIth century castillian writer and first rector of the Real y Pontificia Universidad de México. In his work he writes about the emperor:<br />
<em>"Was, well, Motecuhzoma medium-sized proportion man, with some gravity and royal refinement, [...]. Was slim, with no much size, with bronzed skin, as the parrot, as every of his nation; he wear the hair long, very dark and shiny, almost over his shoulders; his beard was sparse, just some dark hairs and length as the xeme; the eyes was black, with a gravity expression, as if you looking them can feel love and reverence. He was a strength man, agile and swift; good shoot-arrow, swimmer and agile in martial arts; well prepared, although strict, and do it this to be loved and feared..."</em><br />
<em></em><br />
With this datum, and from others chroniclers descriptions of the emperor of the mexica I tring to draw a Motecuhzoma with a severe face, gravity but noble, with a serene and almost mystic air, hieratic expression. The hairstyle of mexica in that time was long until the nape, with straight fringe from ear to ear with the sideburn shaved. This haircut was complemented with headress tied at the top of the head, made with feathers and tassels which hanged over the back. Well here introduce my versión of Motecuhzoma II, emperor of the Mexica. <br />

Y pasamos del emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano de Europa al emperador del Anahuac, de la sagrada Tenochtitlan, <strong>Moctezuma Xocoyotzin</strong> o Moctezuma II.<br />
<br />
No hablaré aquí sobre su biografía, nacimiento, padres, etcétera, ya que en internet hay suficientes fuentes al respecto para quién quiera consultarlos. <br />
<sup></sup><br />
A mi parecer Moctezuma ha sido de los soberanos americanos más representados de la historia. Basta con introducir su nombre en Google para obtener cantidad de imágenes, retratos y grabados que ilustran, o por lo menos lo intentaron, a este emperador, casi todos idealizados.<br />

Pero como dato curioso, y por ser el menos conocido, yo les voy a mostrar uno de los más antiguos, y tal vez por ello el más auténtico, retratos de Moctezuma. <br />

Obviamente no es un retrato en el estricto sentido de la palabra ya que los mexica no poseían este concepto antes de la llegada de los europeos. Digamos que este era igual que el de los egipcios, es decir, tenían ciertas convenciones iconográficas para representar a sus reyes y que solo se distinguían unos de otros por sus símbolos de poder, emblemas, insignias y glifos que representaban sus nombres. Aquí Moctezuma es representado como el dios Xipe Totec. Esa reconstrucción esta basada en los restos del bajorrelieve en andesita hallado en el cerro de Chapultepec, en ciudad de México. Era costumbre de los emperadores mexicas hacerse representar sobre estas salientes rocosas en la base del mencionado cerro.<br />
<br />
Una temprana descripción física del <em>Huey Tlatoani</em> de los mexica la encontramos en <strong>Crónica de la Nueva España</strong> de Cervantes de Salazar, escritor castellano del siglo XVI y primer rector de la Real y Pontificia Universidad de México. En su obra nos dice:<br />
"<em>Era, pues, Moctezuma hombre de mediana disposición, acompañada con cierta gravedad y majestad real,[...]. Era delgado de pocas carnes, la color baza, como de loro, de la manera que todos los de su nación; traía el cabello largo, muy negro y reluciente, casi hasta los hombros; tenía la barba muy rara, con pocos pelos negros y casi tan largos como un xeme; los ojos negros, el mirar grave, que mirándole convidaba a amarle y reverenciarle. Era hombre de buenas fuerzas, suelto y ligero; tiraba bien el arco, nadaba y hacía bien todos los exercicios de guerra; era bien acosdiscionado, aunque muy justiciero, y esto hacía por ser amado y temido...</em><sup>"</sup><br />
<br />
En base a estas descripciones de los cronistas sobre el emperador de los mexica imaginé un Moctezuma de rostro severo, grave pero noble, con un aire sereno y casi místico, hierático dado el carácter de su rango. Los mexica solían llevar el pelo cortado a la altura de los hombros o la nuca, con flequillo recto hasta las orejas rapándose las patillas. Este peinado se complementaba con tocados que se ataban en lo alto de las cabezas, adornados de plumas y borlas o tiras de cuero que colgaban sobre la espalda. Y así os presento mi versión de Moctezuma II, emperador de los mexica.<br />
