EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a retablo, an altarpiece that holds great historical and religious significance. The architectural drawing depicted here is for the retablo located in El Santuario de Chimayo in Chimayo, New Mexico, which was built in 1816. The retablo itself stands as a testament to early American architecture and serves as a devotional centerpiece within the Roman Catholic tradition. Its design reflects both Hispanic and Latin American influences, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of this region. In this image, we are transported back to 1816 when Rafael meticulously crafted this masterpiece. Every detail is carefully rendered on paper - from the delicate carvings to the ornate decorations surrounding Jesus and various saints. El Santuario de Chimayo has long been revered as a sacred site where miracles are said to occur. This retablo acts as a focal point for prayer and worship, inviting believers into its presence with its awe-inspiring craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but marvel at how artistry intertwines with spirituality. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of faith and how it can be expressed through artistic endeavors like these stunning retablos found throughout Latin America's history-rich landscapes.
