In Teúles, the image is the main part of the composition. The subject matter relates to the conquest of Mexico and alludes to the series, under the same title, that José Clemente Orozco produced in remembrance of the bloody battle of the indigenous people against the invading white gods. In Navarro’s work, as in Orozco’s, conqueror and horse become one, symbolically recalling the impression that the Amerindians faced before those terrifying scenes in which men thought to be centaurs appeared. The historical allusion is set out under an aesthetic concern and not with a narrative sense or as a political instrument.
