About the piece
Attributed to José del Pozo around 1810, this oil painting depicts Saint Rose of Lima in a moment of spiritual contemplation. The work uses strong chiaroscuro to highlight the delicate texture of the rose crown against the dark background, exemplifying the religious portraiture of the late colonial period in Peru.
