Talavera Poblana (Unknown Role). Basin Depicting a Cistern, Tower and Domed Building. 1775–1825. Puebla. Tin-glazed earthenware Barely a decade after the Spanish conquered Aztec (Mexica) Tenochtitlan (present-day Mexico City) in 1521, they founded the city of Puebla de los Angeles sixty miles to the southeast.

During the 1560s, Chinese blue-and-white porcelain, along with other Asian luxury goods, began arriving on galleons from Manila, the new capital of the Spani
