The generalization that this image best supports is that "American Indians were expected to convert to Christianity." Spanish missions were primarily established to spread Christianity among indigenous populations, and the image likely illustrates aspects of this expectation. While it might also suggest elements of cruelty, labor, or disease, the primary mission purpose aligns most closely with the expectation of conversion.
