介绍（中）	构成这块石碑的卷轴和交织物是韦拉克鲁斯艺术的特色。可能是镜子的背部支撑，这块牌匾的顶部边缘有一个钻孔（用于悬挂？）。这种镜子作为服装元素，意味着穿着者的崇高地位或权威。它们也许也起到了仪式的作用。这张图片描绘了一个年轻人的侧面，他的鼻子下面有一个小珠子，可能是指说话。头发上戴着一顶带突出结的网帽，耳朵上装饰着一个带牙齿或爪形吊坠的大耳环，脖子上戴着三层串珠项圈。沿着下巴突出的下颌线，有一个类似胡须的卷轴，胡须的延伸在画中平衡了人物的鼻子。牌匾边缘生动、自由流动的卷轴与图像中僵硬的几何元素形成对比。这与图形的轻微倾斜和设计的不对称相结合，使雕刻表面充满活力，创造了视觉上引人注目的构图。
介绍（英）	The scrolls and interlaces that frame this stone plaque are characteristic of the art of Veracruz. Possibly a back support for a mirror, the plaque has a drilled hole (for suspension?) at its top edge. Such mirrors served as costume elements connoting the high rank or authority of the wearer. They perhaps served a ceremonial function as well. The image depicts the profile of a young man with a small bead beneath his nose that may refer to speech. A net cap with a prominent knot is over the hair, a large earflare with a tooth- or claw-shaped pendant adorns the ear, and a three-tiered beaded collar is around the neck. Along the jaw line, protruding out from his chin, there is a scroll resembling a beard, the extension of which pictorially balances the nose of the figure. The lively, free-flowing scrollwork at the edge of the plaque contrasts with the rigid geometric elements of the image. This combined with the slight incline of the figure and the asymmetry of the design imbue the carved surface with dynamism, creating a visually compelling composition.
