About the Item

18th Century Spanish Colonial Oil on Canvas of the Immaculate Conception A magnificent Spanish Colonial school oil on canvas, 18th century, depicting the Immaculate Conception surrounded by angels and saints, within its original carved and giltwood frame. The Virgin is portrayed crowned and haloed, hands joined in devotion, clothed in a celestial blue mantle enriched with delicate gilded motifs and a luminous red lining. Her presence dominates the composition, flanked by angelic figures bearing lilies and roses—symbols of purity and divine grace. At her feet appear three angelic heads in adoration, while to the sides, ecclesiastical figures—likely St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas—gesture with reverence, underscoring her role as Queen of Heaven. Executed with a distinctively Andean sensibility, the painting exemplifies the mestizo baroque aesthetic of the Spanish viceroyalties: bold contrasts of color, devotional intensity, and a balance between European iconography and local stylistic flourishes. The gilded details, seen in the fine floral patterns and celestial accents, evoke the radiant splendor that characterized religious art in the Americas during the 18th century. The original carved gilt frame, with its sharp foliate ornamentation, complements the sacred imagery and enhances the aura of sanctity. Areas of craquelure and age-related wear attest to the painting’s venerable history, contributing to its authenticity and devotional power. This striking work of art is not merely a devotional image, but also a cultural testimony to the fusion of European and Latin American traditions. It stands as a rare survivor of its time, ideal for collectors of Spanish Colonial art and connoisseurs of sacred painting.
