Close-up of the image of La Virgen de Peregrina, patron saint of pilgrims. Ivory head and hands were carved separately and later pegged to crude wooden frames hidden by richly embroidered costume. In the ornate style there is a tendency to achieve realistic detail and a certain theatrical flavour; images tend to look like dolls rather than santos. Ornamentation forms an integral part in the ornate style such that without it there is no statueCollection: Ramon Nuguiera CollectionImage type: originalMedia format: print
