Oil on tin icon painting. Latin America, Peru, Cusco school, 18th century. The piece represents the Virgen del Rosario de Pomata, Our Lady of the Rosary of Pomata. This image is a testament to the cultural blending that occurred in the Andean region during the colonial era. It is believed that the Dominican order introduced this iconography to the Peruvian town of Pomata in the 16th century. Richly decorated repousse silver frame. The Cusco school was a Roman Catholic artistic tradition based in Cusco, Peru during the Colonial period, from the 16th to 18th centuries. It was also present in modern day Ecuador and Bolivia. Cusquena paintings are characterized by their use of exclusively religious subjects, their lack of perspective, and the predominance of red, yellow and earth colors. Collectible Religious Christian Fine Art And Icon Painting, Spanish Colonial School of Art.
