Colonial Miniature Madonna Painting in Bronze Leaf Frame, "Madonna with the Child"

Alberto Torres portrays Mary as a young mother dressed in regal clothing that befits the queen of heaven. Stars on her gown suggest her celestial condition and 22k gold leaf shines from their halos. Torres works in the style of the Cuzco school, recreating colonial religious art found in the city's convents and monasteries. He frames the painting in hand-carved cedar embellished with bronze leaf.

Titled "Madona con el Niño" in Spanish.
