Illustration of the Eagle Lady, wife of the Sun, according to Nahua myths of Mexico. She is an aspect of Itzpapalotl and is seen here based on a depiction of said goddess with eagle wings. Further, her image is based on a possible depiction of a goddess with gold hair and yellow paint seen married to the sun under a cloak shaped like eagle wings and tail as seen here. She represents the time of the day when the moon is still visible during sunlight. Albert Pinot's painting, "bat woman" was an inspiration for the pose and atmosphere as well.
