Cuzco (Cusco) School, 19th century, Peru Ángel Arcabucero (Angel with Arquebus) oil on canvas unframed 58 × 41 cm (22.8 × 16.1 in) framed 66 × 49 cm (26.0 × 19.3 in) No signature Provenance: Acquired in Peru in 1986 by the previous owner.

The angel is richly attired in the fashion of an Andean noble or Spanish aristocrat, with an ornate embroidered coat, lace collar, and billowing sleeves, in keeping with the distinctive iconography of these militaristic angels. Such ángeles arcabuceros emerged in the late 17th century in colonial Peru and were especially popular in Cuzco School painting, replacing the sword of Catholic warrior-angels with a gun to signify the heavenly army’s power in a modern guise. The graceful figure, dressed as a nobleman yet serving a divine role, underscores the fusion of earthly authority and celestial protection – a sartorial and symbolic innovation unique to the Andean region’s religious art. This iconography, found only in Spanish colonial territories, resonated with local believers and visually confirmed the angel’s identity as a heavenly soldier guarding the faithful, his delicate hands cradling a long-barreled arquebus as if it were a sacred instrument. The Ángel Arcabucero exemplifies the visual hallmarks of the Cuzco School, a major Peruvian painting...
