Spanish or Novo-Hispanic school; second half of the 18th century. "Saint Anthony of Padua and Saint Christopher". Oil on canvas. Relined. It has a frame of the nineteenth century, c. 1860. Measurements: 66 x 59 cm; 83 x 73 cm (frame). During the baroque and in a more consolidated way in later times, scenes were popularized where several saints starred in images together with a didactic purpose, since they represented analogous concepts. In this particular case it is the representation of St. Anthony of Padua holding Jesus in his hands and next to him we recognize the legend of St. Christopher, that giant who carried on his shoulders a child he did not know, only out of kindness, to help him cross a river. That child turned out to be Christ, which made him the patron saint of travelers. The two monumental and placed figures cover the entire scene that develops in an open landscape, in whose distance another religious figure can be appreciated, located in the right zone of the composition. It is worth mentioning that, during the Spanish colonial domination, a mainly religious painting was developed, aimed at Christianizing the indigenous peoples. The local painters were modeled on Spanish works, which they followed literally in terms of types and iconography. The most frequent models were the harquebusier angels and the triangular virgins, however, it was not until the first years of the 19th century, already in times of independence and political opening of some of the colonies, that several artists began to represent a new model of painting with its own identity.
