Created in 1553, this watercolor on parchment masterpiece is housed in the Museo de America in Madrid, Spain. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the rich history and mythology surrounding cacao trees. The image depicts a miniature representation of a cacao tree, an essential plant in ancient Mexican culture. This botanical marvel holds great significance as it symbolizes not only the precious cocoa beans but also carries mythological connotations. It serves as a reminder of the deep-rooted connection between humans and nature during prehispanic times.
