Description: "During the restoration project of the Church, La Candelaria in Bogotá a mural by Pedro Alcántara Quijano was discovered. The discovery has brought a renewed interest in the work of the artist. This book includes a detailed iconographic study of the mural as well as documentation of his pictures, landscapes, bodegones and historical paintings. Maestro Quijano (b. Bogotá) was a student of Enrique Recio y Gil and part of the circle of important artists such as Andrés de Santamaría, Pergrino Rivera Arce and Francisco Antonio Cano, all of whom were part of the formation of the Círculo de Bellas Artes. His sphere of influence was strong during the early part of the 20th century"--Provided by vendor.
