Item Details

Description

Latin America, Mexico, ca. 1918. A charming ex voto depicting a man wearing a green suit who has removed his sombrero and is praying to the Virgin of San Juan de los Lagos (of the Lakes) who appears as a vision before him, donning a gold crown as well as robes of gold and white hues above a crescent moon and celestial clouds. Although the inscription is somewhat faded and difficult to read, it is possible to discern the date September of 1918. Size: 14.25" W x 10.25" H (36.2 cm x 26 cm)

Ex-votos are little story paintings indicative of healing or blessing popular in Mexican visual culture. This tradition was inspired by the Greeks and was brought to the New World by the Spaniards. 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 dangerous situation. Hence, ex-votos represent the spiritual or physical gains received. These paintings include hand painted passages that relate the details of the cure or the rescue.
