Title: Mexico City
Passage: Much of the early colonial art stemmed from the codices (Aztec illustrated books), aiming to recover and preserve some Aztec and other Amerindian iconography and history.

Secular works of art of this period include the equestrian sculpture of Charles IV of Spain, locally known as El Caballito ("The little horse").

Later documents formulated during his life, such as passports, military career records and wedding documentation, gave him varying ages.
