About this Item
Diverse scenes representative of the Ayacucho region of Peru comprise this handcrafted retablo, a unique style of Andean folk art. The altar-like composition is divided into several shelves, populated by colorful figures and expressions of native customs. In the upper space, Alejandro Chavez recreates the birth of Jesus, as men and women dressed in traditional Peruvian attire look on proudly. The frame is made from wood, while the artist uses ceramic figures and vibrant paints to evoke the vast tapestry of human emotions.

“Interessante ErgƤnzung unserer Retablo-Sammlung”
Die interessante Kombination der Krippendarstellung mit einem Spiegel ist eine wirklich auĆergewƶhnliche Idee. So wird jeder Betrachter zum Teil der Krippe.

“Big colorful and what a work of art”
This piece is so big and is an amazing piece of artwork. I unpacked this well wrapped piece and just stared at all the work that has gone into making this piece. Every one of the dolls are handmade and have such character.

“Very colorful”
My only complaint is that the features painted on Our Ladys face are just rushed and look masculine. The cherubs facial features look angry, not angelic. Im an artist, so I can fix it, but I shouldnt have to. Otherwise, I like it.
