Carved Wooden Choir Balcony with Caryatids

This carved wooden balcony once served as a choir loft, allowing cloistered nuns or officials to observe chapel rituals unseen. The four sculpted caryatids, blending baroque ornament with indigenous aesthetics, support a paneled structure symbolizing the fusion of European Catholicism and local craftsmanship in 17th–18th c. Tunja.
