This image is a forensic, matter-of-fact depiction of a large-scale, weathered ceramic tile mural located on the **Paseo Alameda (Alameda Promenade)** in the city of **Mendoza, Argentina**. The mural portrays a historical scene from the Spanish colonial period, likely depicting the city's founding or early encounters. The scene features a group of individuals in a procession-like arrangement. On the left and right sides of the upper mid-ground, two Spanish conquistadors are mounted on horses, dressed in full armor including helmets and breastplates. In the foreground and mid-ground, a central group consists of three additional conquistadors on foot, distinguished by their partial plate armor, helmets (morions), and elaborate period clothing with puffed sleeves and breeches; they carry long pikes or halberds. Interspersed among them are at least four indigenous figures, depicted as bare-chested with simple loincloths or shorts, and some holding spears or poles. A prominent feature in the lower foreground is a dark-furred, medium-sized dog with a short coat, standing with its mouth slightly open, facing right. The ground is rendered in earthy yellow and brown tones with patches of green vegetation. The background is a plain, light-colored sky. The entire image is composed of numerous individual ceramic tiles, evident from the grid lines and slight variations in color and texture between them. Significant wear, cracking, and missing fragments of tiles are visible across the mural's surface, particularly in the lower-center and mid-section, indicating its age and outdoor exposure.
