What I love about this painting:
This is a wonderful exploration of form and color. The sky is powerful, the visual representation of the Triune God watching over the town and its people. I love the passion, the vibrancy of the town and the way Diego Mato Toledo brings life to this scene.
This painting tells the story of the spirit of the people of Central America, the mix of indigenous and Spanish religion that makes a culture that is so uniquely theirs.
It is an image that makes me happy.
