A draughtsman. In 1960, during the creation of the Galería de Historia — the Museo del Caracol — he drew the figures for the dioramas from iconographic sources: paintings, lithographs and historical prints; on those drawings Iker Larrauri then composed each scene. The INAH has devoted an exhibition to his work, «Telésforo Herrera. Dibujante del Caracol», and the Museo de Arte Moderno of the State of Mexico another.
