19th C. Mexican Tin Retablo Santa Rita de Casia

Item Details

Description

Spanish Colonial, Latin America, Mexico, ca. 19th century CE. A fine tin retablo painted with the image of Santa Rita de Casia (di Cascia in her native Italian) depicted traditionally in Augustinian nun's garb and holding a large Crucifix, a skull symbolizing mortality, and a flagellum whip representing her mortification of the flesh. A pair of petite figures intended as her sons stand to either side of her as she gazes outward at the viewer, a thorn piercing her forehead as blood drips down. When Rita was approximately sixty years of age, she was meditating before an image of Christ crucified. Suddenly, a small wound appeared on her forehead, as though a thorn from the crown that encircled Christ's head had loosened itself and penetrated her own flesh. It was considered to be a partial Stigmata, and she bore this external sign of union with Christ until her death in 1457. Size: 10" W x 14" H (25.4 cm x 35.6 cm)

Some very light bending to tin as well as areas of nicks and scratches to paint, but imagery is still very clear. Intact with an excellent presentation and good remaining detail.
