What does this mean?

Dear Joshua,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.

The presented object appears to be a drawing in ink on paper with 19.6" x 14.9" measurements. The drawing was made as a facsimile after a Mexican drawing (https://www.bridgemanimages.com/en-US/mexican-school/the-burning-of-the-idols-by-hernan-cortes-illustration-from-a-facsimile-of-a-mexican-indian-picture/colour-engraving/asset/163948). It was made in the 20th century.
Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 30 to 60 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.

With kind regards,
Gregory
