Description: This publication presents the analysis of two series of canvases that tell the story of the life of Saint Augustine, which were made by Cusco artists, in the 18th century, for the convents of the Augustinian order of Lima and Cusco. The first painting is from the Convent of San Agustin in Lima and was made by the painter Basilio Pacheco, and the second one belongs to the Augustinian convent of Cusco and was acquired by the Mercedarian order in 1831 and although it is anonymous it is attributed to Antonio Vilca and his circle. This book covers both the framework of execution of the artists' pictorial production and the existing documents on their activity; in addition to the historical and evolutionary context of the Augustinian friars in Peru, from their arrival until the 18th century. The work represents an important enhancement of the unique contributions made to Augustinian iconography by the Cusco school, by including reproductions of the canvases studied.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 181-185).
