Virgin of ChiquinquiráBaltasar Vargas de Figueroa
This oil painting (c.1660) honors the Virgin of Chiquinquirá, patroness of Colombia, shown enthroned with the Christ Child. Saints flank her in reverence—one holding a miniature Christ, the other reading Scripture. Radiant with divine light, the Virgin embodies colonial-era Marian devotion, blending Spanish religious iconography with New World veneration.
