About the piece

This masterful colonial-era painting by Gregorio Vásquez de Arce y Ceballos depicts Saint Rose of Lima in a moment of serene devotion. Characteristic of the Spanish Baroque influence in Latin America, the work features a luminous figure emerging from a deep, atmospheric background, crowned with her iconic wreath of roses and holding the symbols of her faith and martyrdom.
