“Jaguar Nahuatl Tattoo” combines the politics of color and class with Latino/Chicano Indigenous values through the inclusion of a Tattoo on the décolletage of a brown Victorian beauty. The Jaguar is the symbol of the messengers of the forest spirits and the power of darkness (Illustrated Encyclopedia of Traditional Symbols, J.C. Cooper, Thames and Hudson, Inc., 1979).
