Saint Isidore the Farmer
Oil on canvas
H_150 cm W_85 cm
This is a significant depiction of Saint Isidore the Farmer, patron saint of farmers and agricultural labour. Surrounding him are the emblematic scenes from his legend: working in the fields, sowing seeds, transporting the harvest, a team of oxen and assisting angels, in keeping with the iconography characteristic of the Andean colonial tradition. At his feet are worshippers kneeling in prayer, as well as a village with whitewashed houses.
