Note: The line-by-line similarity between 6251A and 6251B and the persistence of signs of wear of 6251A in 6251B indicate that these two woodcuts were printed from one and the same woodblock. Printed in Seville, the Gutiérrez block could have reached Ocharte via Antonio Ricardo, an Italian typographer who traveled from Seville to Mexico in 1570 to become Ocharte's publishing partner as the printing career of Gutiérrez was coming to an end (1572).
