EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the Fray Pedro Gocial museum in San Francisco's convent, located in Quito, Ecuador. The focal point of the image is a stunning statue of Saint Jerome, crafted by an anonymous artist during the 17th century. The intricate details and masterful craftsmanship are evident as every curve and contour of the sculpture is brought to life through photography. Saint Jerome, a revered figure in Catholicism and Christianity, stands tall with his iconic attributes: a skull and skeleton symbolizing mortality and contemplation. This powerful representation showcases not only religious devotion but also artistic excellence prevalent during this period. The print transports viewers back to the early 17th century when South America was flourishing with art movements like Baroque. It serves as a reminder of Latin America's rich cultural heritage and its significant contributions to Western Hemisphere arts. As one gazes upon this remarkable piece, it becomes apparent that it holds more than just historical value; it embodies faith, spirituality, and human expression. The ambiance surrounding the statue exudes reverence for both religion and artistic brilliance. Philippe Lissac skillfully captured this moment in time while preserving its authenticity for generations to come. Through his lens, we can appreciate not only the beauty within this specific artwork but also gain insight into South American history and its profound impact on global art movements.
