This illustration from The Codex Tovar, written by Juan de Tovar and illustrated by an Aztec painter in the late 1500s, depicts the legend of Tenochtitlan (the founding of Mexico). This legend/imagery is the inspiration for the national emblem of Mexico and the Mexican flag. The illustration, color, and orientation of this artwork immediately reminded me of a tarot deck. I image other historical events would be interesting to depict in this style.
