Description
Saint Teresa as a Doctor of the Church. New Spain School, 18th Century. Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 79 cm x 60 cm and 84 cm x 65 cm (framed). A solemn representation of Saint Teresa of Ávila as a Doctor of the Church, depicted in half-length portrait and dressed in the Carmelite habit. The saint holds a banner and an architectural model, symbols of her spiritual authority and the foundation of the reform movement. Her face, with its serene expression and direct gaze, is illuminated by a radiant halo that emphasizes her sanctity. The meticulous treatment of the drapery and the rich colours reveal careful and refined execution. The work belongs to the New Spanish painting tradition of the 18th century, characterized by iconographic clarity, symbolic emphasis, and a strong devotional charge, making it an image of great visual and spiritual impact.
