- Lot Description
Latin America, Spanish Colonial, Mexico, ca. 1872 CE. Hand-painted with oil pigments on a sheet of tin-coated iron, a lovely ex-voto retablo offered to the Lord of Llanito (El Senor de Llanito) and the Lord of the Column (El Senor de la Columna). Ex-votos are little story paintings indicative of healing or blessing popular in Mexican visual culture. These votive paintings were hung in a church or home in order to celebrate and give thanks for the recovery of an individual from an illness or unfortunate situation. Here, the Spanish inscription describes someone who fell ill and could not eat, so his wife then sought help from Senor del Llanito and Senor de la Columna who healed him. Senor de Llanito is shown to the far right, crucified and surrounded by roses, while next to him is Senor de la Columna (or Jesus of the column) - a depiction of Jesus bloody and whipped with hands tied to a column. To the left is the sick man lying in bed as his wife and another woman care for him. Size: 10" W x 7" H (25.4 cm x 17.8 cm)
Provenance: ex-Austin, Texas, USA collection; ex-private Alabama, USA collection
