Description: "In this book, based on an analysis of 251 pictures from Cusco of the 17th and 18th centuries with a set of unique material features, and who despite important similarities with the European reference, establish a deep conceptual and cultural break with this model. The author, questioning the categories of analysis traditionally applied to these paintings, concludes that colonial Cuzco canvas is not exactly a painting, but it is as another mode of production and presentation of the sacred in the colonial Andean space."
