Juan Escutia was one of the six Niños Héroes ("Boy Heroes") who died defending Mexico City's Chapultepec Castle from invading US forces on September 13th, 1847. Legend has it that Juan leapt from Chapultepec Castle wrapped in the Mexican flag to prevent it from being taken by the enemy. Signed in the front lower right corner. Currently unframed, but options are available. Artist Biography: Tyler Casey is a self-taught diverse artist who began traveling and living abroad in his early teens. His unique eye lends a modern and unconstructed approach to his art, drawing inspiration from politics to pop culture. Tyler resides between Mexico and Texas. Having embarked on a journey of exploration and discovery in his teens, Casey’s artistic sensibilities have been enriched by his travels and life abroad, ultimately giving rise to his distinctive artistic approach. With a deep-rooted connection to both Mexico and Texas, his art is brimming with color, emotion, and narrative. Drawing inspiration from the ever-evolving worlds of politics and pop culture, Tyler Casey’s creations evoke thought-provoking conversation, inviting viewers to reflect and engage.
