Exvoto

Mexico
Oil on metal
Circa 1920
14 x 10 inches
Inventory# Y528

High drama in this ambitious representation of a harrowing escape from a collapsed roof. Curious how the Virgin Mary (of San Juan de los Lagos) and supplicant are in separate rooms or shown in sequential time frames. With a patient concentrated effort much of the inscription could be deciphered, otherwise the exvoto is in very good original condition.
