Arte de la lengua mexicana y castellana is a 1571 grammar of Nahuatl written by Alonso de Molina and printed in Mexico City by Pedro Ocharte for Spanish readers learning the Indigenous language. The pages are dense black-letter type with paragraph marks, section headings and numbered rules, and little ornament beyond red-ruled borders and decorated initials, offering a designer a model of early colonial printed text layout.
