About the piece
Created by an anonymous artist of the Cusco School around 1730, this oil painting depicts the apostles gathered in prayer and sorrow around the Virgin Mary. The work is notable for its 'brocateado'—the application of fine gold leaf over the figures' robes—and the contrasting inclusion of a naturalistic landscape under a divine light.
