Important Divina Pastora in oval, colonial school of Miguel de Cabrera, Novohispanic colonial school of the 18th century, ca 1760 Oil on oval board, framed, measurements: 26 x 26 cm, measurements with frame: 28 x 28 cm. This beautiful and colorful composition closely follows the models of an oil on copper currently kept at the Los Angeles County Museum, inventory number M.2008.31. The Shepherd as an evangelizing symbol of Christianity dates back to the time of paleo-Christianity, and is already used in the Roman catacombs. Although its use was of popular origin, the Church accepted the parallelism of Christ as a good shepherd and that of his Mother as a shepherdess who watches over and intercedes for the human race, represented by the sheep, which they care for against the devil and sin. In 1703, under the dress and appearance of a shepherdess, the heavenly Lady appeared to the Capuchin Isidoro of Seville and asked him to be honored under this image. Established as the patron saint of the Capuchin missionaries of Catalonia, this new iconographic type of the Divine Shepherdess soon spread throughout all the Spanish regions and its possessions in America. Origin: Spanish private collection.
