        Est: €8,000 - €10,000

        Attributed to MIGUEL CABRERA, (Mexico, 1695 - 1768). "Virgin of Guadalupe. Oil on copper. Measurements: 32 x 22 cm; 51 x 42 cm (frame). The Virgin of Guadalupe is the most important and most worshiped Virgin in Mexico and other Latin American countries. Since the viceregal era, a complex iconography has developed around her cult, and a great artistic production that is characterized by the conjunction of local art with the European artistic tradition brought from Spain. The origin of the Virgin of Guadalupe is from Extremadura, but the Mexican version has its own origins. An ancient legend narrates that, in 1531, she appeared to a recently baptized Indian named Juan Diego. He asked him to ask the bishop to build a chapel in his honor, leaving his image imprinted on the Indian's tunic. This event became known as the Miracle of the Roses, and was recorded in the "Nican Mopohua", a text presumably written by the Indian Antonio Valeriano. The Mexican image of the Virgin of Guadalupe always appears surrounded by solar rays, an iconographic feature that comes from the apocalyptic and sibylline Virgins, both celestial apparitions. Likewise, her iconography was completed by partially assimilating the immaculist iconography, whose symbolism was established in Spain during the 16th century. It is a numerous set of symbols, extracted from the Song of Songs and the Apocalypse. From the text of St. John we take the crescent moon, evoking the chastity of Diana and, later, the victory over the Turks; the angels that surround her, the mandorla of solar rays, the hands in an attitude of prayer and the crown of twelve stars, symbol of fullness. Miguel Cabrera was one of the greatest exponents of Novo-Hispanic baroque painting. Born in the town of Tlalixtac, in Oaxaca, he dedicated his work to religious themes and especially to the figure of the Virgin of Guadalupe, and on this last theme he wrote "American marvel and set of rare wonders observed with the direction of the rules of the art of painting" (1756). Among his most outstanding works are those he made for some chapels of the cathedral of Mexico City, among them the sacristy, which houses in one of its walls a "Woman of the Apocalypse". Cabrera was also the chamber painter of Archbishop José Manuel Rubio y Salinas, and in 1753 he founded the first painting academy in Mexico. He also painted some portraits, such as that of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1751). Miguel Cabrera was especially splendid in his small and medium-sized works, both on canvas and copper. His warm and vivid colors, unparalleled in the Novo-Hispanic school of the 18th century, stand out, as well as his firm drawing and the poetic expressions of the faces of his Virgins, saints and even portraits of characters of his time. He was a very prolific artist, and enjoyed a very large workshop with apprentices specialized in specific tasks. When composing his works he used to base himself, sometimes literally, on prints of Spanish and Flemish origin, a common practice not only in America but also in Europe. On the other hand, we see in his production a strong influence of Murillo, which makes us think that he must have worked in the workshop of the Rodriguez Juarez brothers, then at the height of their glory, in Mexico City. Currently his works are kept in several of the main Mexican temples, as well as in the Museo del Virreinato in Tepozotlán, the Museo de América in Madrid, the Museo de El Carmen in San Ángel (Mexico City), the Museo Nacional de las Intervenciones in Coyoacán, the Pinacoteca Virreinal in Mexico City, the Dallas Museum of Art and the Museo de Santa Mónica in Puebla.

        Attributed to Miguel Cabrera (Antequera de Oaxaca, Mexico, 1695 - Mexico, 1768)

        Est: €9,000 - €15,000

        Attributed to Miguel Cabrera (Antequera de Oaxaca, Mexico, 1695 - Mexico, 1768) ‘Our Lady of Sorrows' Oil on copper. 57 x 42.5 cm. Cabrera is considered to be the greatest exponent of 18th-century Viceroyalty painting in New Spain, with an output that the Dallas Museum of Art defines as ‘legendary: more than 309 works from his large studio have been documented’. Miguel Mateo Maldonado y Cabrera was born on 27 February 1695 in Antequera, present-day Oaxaca, Mexico, a fact known from the painter's will from 1768. He was the son of unknown parents and the godson of a mulatto couple. He moved to Mexico City in 1719, where he began his artistic training in the studio of Juan Correa in the capital of the Viceroyalty. Cabrera painted altarpieces in the Jesuit church of Tepotzotlán, in the State of Mexico, in the church of Santa Prisca in Taxco, Guerrero, and in the cathedrals of Mexico City and Puebla. Cabrera was not only a painter, but was also involved in the attempt to found an academy of arts in 1753, and in 1756 he established himself as an intellectual, not only as an artist, as he published an account of the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe in 1756 entitled ‘Maravilla americana y conjunto de raras maravillas observadas con la dirección de las reglas del arte de la pintura’, an account of the image of the Virgin Guadalupe published by the printing press of the Jesuit college of San Ildefonso. In addition to easel painting, his output includes altarpiece designs, large-format paintings, as well as small ones on copper and nun's shields. Cabrera produced figures of remarkable beauty in his religious painting, a beauty understood through the ideological assumptions of the worship of the period. It is refined art with well-arranged chromatic richness, sustained by great compositional work and, no less important, subtle and expressive drawing. Of all the painters of that period, Cabrera was the one with the greatest personality; the conventional treatment of his figures undoubtedly formed the basis of his style of painting, as he placed in his paintings models that were not ideal, but who were people he knew and dealt with, such as when he incorporated portraits of donors or the so-called ‘prelates’ in some paintings.  He had the need to observe directly and copy from nature. He was appointed chamber painter to Archbishop Manuel Rubio y Salinas, who commissioned him to study and paint the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe, an image made from "ayate" - a material made from local plants. Cabrera's version was sent to Pope Benedict XIV, from whom he received the highest recognition as a painter of Guadalupe. Outstanding portraits he painted include the one of Sor JuanaInés de la Cruz, kept in the National Museum of History, and the portrait of Juan de Palafox y Mendoza, located in the Museum of Colonial Art in Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico. He was also a painter for the Society of Jesus, producing numerous artworks for their churches. In 1753 he was appointed president for life of the Academy of San Carlos. His work is kept in many churches and convents in Mexico. Two of his images of the Virgin of Guadalupe are in the Vatican Museum. Another, painted in 1756 for the church of San Francisco Javier, is in the Museo Nacional del Virreinato. The Museum of Art in Dallas has a Saint Gertrude the Great by Miguel Cabrera and another painting of Saint Gertrude, also by Cabrera and dated 1768, is part of the collection of the José Luis Bello y Zetina Museum in Puebla, Mexico. Also of note is an important series of Caste paintings from 1763 in the collection of the Museo de América in Madrid. These depict families, father, mother and child of the various castes and social strata, in everyday situations. Spanish Americas.

Presents faults in the frame. Size: 77 x 64 cm; 100 x 77 x 6 cm (frame). In this canvas adhered to a board, Jesus Christ is represented as Ecce Homo. The characteristic workmanship of the New Spain painter Miguel Cabrera can be appreciated in his skillful assimilation of Spanish Baroque tenebrism, whose formulas he softened by forging his own typology of suffering figures, especially virgins, saints and Christs like the one we are dealing with. The wiry features have been modeled with nuanced shades that enhance the expressiveness of the face, with two tears running down one cheekbone. Blood drips from the crown of thorns that girdles his forehead. The red cloth, a color associated with the Passion and sacrifice, wraps around his shoulders, leaving his torso naked and vulnerable. Handcuffed, the eyes clouded with pain silently dialogue with God the Father. The hands of fine fingers remain joined by a rope. The skillful handling of the glazes stands out. The devotional painting conveys the extreme loneliness of Jesus at the moment when he is exposed to be judged and condemned. Miguel Cabrera was one of the greatest exponents of the novo-Hispanic baroque painting. Born in the town of Tlalixtac, in Oaxaca, he dedicated his work to religious themes and especially to the figure of the Virgin of Guadalupe, and on this last theme he wrote "American marvel and set of rare wonders observed with the direction of the rules of the art of painting" (1756). Among his most outstanding works are those he made for some chapels of the cathedral of Mexico City, among them the sacristy, which houses in one of its walls a "Woman of the Apocalypse". Cabrera was also the chamber painter of Archbishop José Manuel Rubio y Salinas, and in 1753 he founded the first painting academy in Mexico. He also painted some portraits, such as that of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1751). Miguel Cabrera was especially splendid in his small and medium-sized works, both on canvas and copper. His warm and vivid colors, unparalleled in the Novo-Hispanic school of the 18th century, stand out, as well as his firm drawing and the poetic expressions of the faces of his Virgins, saints and even portraits of characters of his time. He was a very prolific artist, and had a very large workshop with apprentices specialized in specific tasks. When composing his works he used to base himself, sometimes literally, on prints of Spanish and Flemish origin, a common practice not only in America but also in Europe. On the other hand, we see in his production a strong influence of Murillo, which makes us think that he must have worked in the workshop of the Rodriguez Juarez brothers, then at the height of their glory, in Mexico City.

        Novo-Hispanic school, 18th century. Circle of MIGUEL CABRERA (Mexico, 1695-1768). ‘Saint Gertrudis Magna. Oil on canvas. It presents faults and perforations. Frame of the XVIII century. Measurements: 112 x 83 cm; 127 x 97,5 x 3 cm (frame). Miguel Cabrera was one of the leading exponents of Baroque painting of the Viceroyalty. The present devotional painting is based on a painting by Cabrera in the Dallas Museum of Art. The painter must have belonged to Cabrera's circle, but it is not an exact copy. In Cabrera's case, Gertrude's hand shows two outstretched fingers in a gesture symbolising the dual nature of Christ. In our painting, the saint's snowy hand is extended below the heart, which is haloed with the figure of Christ, which is also present in Cabrera's painting. Gertrude, dressed in rigorous black, reads the Scriptures during her monastic stay. During the 18th century the cult of Saint Gertrude the Great was widespread throughout the Spanish empire, and there are numerous representations of her in Castile, Aragon and Portugal, as well as in Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru and Mexico. The image was disseminated in engravings, canvases, sculptures, nuns' coats of arms and medallions, was placed in altarpieces and was included among the most prominent saints in paintings depicting the heavenly court. In addition, she was mentioned in numerous sermons, novenas, prayers, masses and hagiographies, and her life inspired a play in which the saint was called ‘Christ's most beloved’. Undoubtedly this popular diffusion of her image and her story went hand in hand with the spread of the cult, the peak of which can be seen in the first half of the 18th century.

        Attributed to Miguel Cabrera (Antequera de Oaxaca, Mexico, 1715 / 1720 - Mexico, 1768) "Christ Child as Salvator Mundi" Oil on canvas. 81 x 60 cm. The finely detailed lace and transparent attire that covers the body of the Child suggests that this painting was possibly created for a convent of nuns. As is customary in the Novo-Hispanic world, the Christ Child is depicted with a ring of angels in the background, and is also resting on a group of angels. Miguel Cabrera was one of the most renowned painters in the field of 18th-century New Spanish painting, producing work that the Dallas Museum of Art defines as "legendary: over 309 works have been documented from his large studio." In addition to easel painting, Cabrera's production includes altar design, large-scale works, as well as small artworks on copper and nun's shields. The figures in Cabrera's religious painting are of remarkable beauty, a beauty expressed through the ideological assumptions of worship of the time. It is refined art that possesses well-arranged chromatic richness, as well as great compositional work and, no less important, subtle and expressive drawing. Little is known about his youth; in fact, according to the Andrés Blaisten Museum, it is only through the painter's will in 1768 that we know he was a native of Oaxaca. His first known records are from 1739, the year of his marriage to Ana María Solano, as well as his time in Juan Correa's workshop in the capital of the Viceroyalty. Archbishop Rubio Salinas was a protector of Cabrera, whom he appointed as his court painter. He was also a painter for the Society of Jesus, for whose churches he created numerous works. In 1753, he was appointed lifelong president of the San Carlos Academy. In 1756, Cabrera published "Maravilla americana y conjunto de raras maravillas observadas con la dirección de las reglas del arte de la pintura" (American Marvels and a Collection of Rare Marvels Observed Following the Rules of the Art of Painting), a narration about the image of the Virgin Guadalupe printed at the press of the Jesuit college of San Ildefonso. His works are preserved in many churches and convents in Mexico. Two of his images of the Virgin of Guadalupe are housed in the Vatican Museum. Another, created in 1756 for the temple of San Francisco Javier, is preserved in the National Museum of the Viceroyalty. The Dallas Museum of Art houses a Santa Gertrudis La Magna by Miguel Cabrera, and another representation of the saint, also by Cabrera and dated 1768, is part of the collection at the José Luis Bello y Zetina Museum in Puebla, Mexico. Likewise, we should highlight an important series of Casta paintings from 1763, kept in the collection at the Museum of the Americas in Madrid. They depict families, father, mother, and child from various castes and social strata, in situations of everyday life. Reference Bibliography: - Dallas Museum of Art. (s.f.).

Among his most outstanding works are those he made for some chapels of the cathedral of Mexico City, among them the sacristy, which houses in one of its walls a "Woman of the Apocalypse". Cabrera was also the chamber painter of Archbishop José Manuel Rubio y Salinas, and in 1753 he founded the first painting academy in Mexico. He also painted some portraits, such as that of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1751). Miguel Cabrera was especially splendid in his small and medium-sized works, both on canvas and copper. His warm and vivid colors, unparalleled in the Novo-Hispanic school of the 18th century, stand out, as well as his firm drawing and the poetic expressions of the faces of his Virgins, saints and even portraits of characters of his time. He was a very prolific artist, and had a very large workshop with apprentices specialized in specific tasks. When composing his works he used to base himself, sometimes literally, on prints of Spanish and Flemish origin, a common practice not only in America but also in Europe. On the other hand, we see in his production a strong influence of Murillo, which makes us think that he must have worked in the workshop of the Rodriguez Juarez brothers, then at the height of their glory, in Mexico City. Currently his works are kept in several of the main Mexican temples, as well as in the Museo del Virreinato in Tepozotlán, the Museo de América in Madrid, the Museo de El Carmen in San Ángel (Mexico City), the Museo Nacional de las Intervenciones in Coyoacán, the Pinacoteca Virreinal in Mexico City, the Dallas Museum of Art and the Museo de Santa Mónica in Puebla.

        MIGUEL CABRERA (Mexico, 1695 - 1768). "Ecce Homo. Oil on canvas, glued to board. Frame of the eighteenth century, with additions of the nineteenth century. Signed in the lower right corner. Presents faults in the frame. Size: 77 x 64 cm; 100 x 77 x 6 cm (frame). In this canvas adhered to a board, Jesus Christ is represented as Ecce Homo. The characteristic workmanship of the New Spain painter Miguel Cabrera can be appreciated in his skillful assimilation of Spanish Baroque tenebrism, whose formulas he softened by forging his own typology of suffering figures, especially virgins, saints and Christs like the one we are dealing with. The wiry features have been modeled with nuanced shades that enhance the expressiveness of the face, with two tears running down one cheekbone. Blood drips from the crown of thorns that girdles his forehead. The red cloth, a color associated with the Passion and sacrifice, wraps around his shoulders, leaving his torso naked and vulnerable. Handcuffed, the eyes clouded with pain silently dialogue with God the Father. The hands of fine fingers remain joined by a rope. The skillful handling of the glazes stands out. The devotional painting conveys the extreme loneliness of Jesus at the moment when he is exposed to be judged and condemned.

        MIGUEL CABRERA (ANTEQUERA DE OAXACA, MEXICO, 1695 - MEXICO, 1768)

        Est: €8,000 - €12,000

        Miguel Cabrera (Antequera de Oaxaca, Mexico, 1695 - Mexico, 1768) 'Our Lady of Sorrows' and 'Saint Francis of Assisi' Pair of oil paintings on copper. The first signed by Michl. Cabrera pinxit, the second by Michl. Cabrera in 1761. 42 x 56.5 cm each. Miguel Mateo Maldonado y Cabrera was born on February 27, 1695, in Antequera, now Oaxaca City, Mexico. He is considered the foremost exponent of 18th-century New Spanish colonial painting. His parents are unknown and he was the godson of a mixed-race couple. He moved to Mexico City in 1719, where he began his artistic training. Cabrera painted altarpieces in the Jesuit church of Tepotzotlán in the State of Mexico, in the church of Santa Prisca in Taxco, Guerrero, and in the cathedrals of Mexico City and Puebla. Cabrera was not only a painter but also participated in the attempt to found an Academy of Arts in 1753. In 1756, he established himself as an intellectual, not just an artist, as he published a narrative about the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe through the printing press of the Jesuit college of San Ildefonso. In addition to easel painting, Cabrera's production includes altar design, large-scale works, as well as small artworks on copper and nun's shields. The figures in Cabrera's religious painting are of remarkable beauty, a beauty expressed through the ideological assumptions of worship of the time. It is refined art that possesses well-arranged chromatic richness, as well as great compositional work and, no less important, subtle and expressive drawing. Of all the painters of that time, Cabrera had the most personality; the way he typically treated his figures was undoubtedly the basis of his painting style, because he placed models that were not ideal in his paintings, but that corresponded to people whom the artist knew and interacted with, such as when he incorporated portraits of donors or so-called 'prelates' in some paintings, as he needed to observe directly and copy from nature. He was appointed court painter of Archbishop Manuel Rubio y Salinas, who commissioned him to study and paint the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe. The image was sent to Pope Benedict XIV, from whom he obtained the highest recognition as a painter of Guadalupe. Outstanding portraits he painted include the one of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, housed in the National Museum of History, and that of Juan de Palafox y Mendoza, located in the Museum of Colonial Art in Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico. Cabrera's work is present in numerous public and private collections, such as the Pinacoteca de La Profesa, the Andrés Blaisten Collection in Mexico, and the Museum of the Americas in Madrid, which has a series of caste paintings consisting of sixteen paintings, perhaps one of his greatest masterpieces.

        Est: €30,000 - €40,000

        Attributed to Miguel Cabrera (Antequera de Oaxaca, Mexico, 1715 / 1720 - Mexico, 1768) 'Saint Augustine of Hippo meditating on the Holy Trinity' Oil on canvas. 56,5 x 43 cm. Accompanied by an imposing carved and gilded wooden frame from the Charles III period.   According to the saint's story, he was sitting by the seashore meditating on the mystery of the Trinity when he saw a child filling a hole in the sand with seawater. Saint Augustine asked him why he was doing it, to which the child replied that he was trying to empty all the water from the sea into the hole. Upon hearing this, the saint told the child that it was impossible, to which the child responded that if that was impossible, it was even more impossible to try to decipher the mystery of the Holy Trinity. Miguel Cabrera presents the protagonists in a scene slightly different from the original story. The saint is not dressed in black with his religious habit but wears vestments and an episcopal mitre, alluding to the bishopric he held in Hippo. Tender faces, finesse in the strokes, this New Spanish painter was known as one of the foremost exponents of Baroque painting of the viceroyalty. Miguel Cabrera was, in fact, one of the most renowned painters in the field of eighteenth-century New Spanish painting, with an oeuvre that the Dallas Museum of Art defines as 'legendary: more than 309 works from his great studio have been documented.' Little is known of his youth; In fact, according to the Andrés Blaisten Museum, it is only because of the painter's will in 1768 that we know that he was a native of Oaxaca. The first news of him is from 1739, the year of his marriage to Ana María Solano, and we also know of his stint at Juan Correa's workshop in the capital of the Viceroyalty. Archbishop Rubio Salinas was Cabrera's patron, whom he named his chamber painter. He was also a painter for the Society of Jesus, for whose churches he produced numerous works. In 1753 he was appointed president for life of the Academy of San Carlos. In 1756 Cabrera published 'American wonder and set of rare wonders observed and directed by the rules of the art of painting', a narrative about the image of the Virgin Guadalupe from the printing press of the Jesuit school of San Ildefonso. His work is kept in many churches and convents in Mexico. Two of his images of the Virgin of Guadalupe are in the Vatican Museum. Another, painted in 1756, for the temple of San Francisco Javier, is kept in the National Museum of the Viceroyalty. The Dallas Museum of Art has a Saint Gertrude the Great by Miguel Cabrera and another painting of the saint, also by Cabrera and dated 1768, is part of the collection of the José Luis Bello y Zetina Museum in Puebla, Mexico. Likewise, there is an outstanding series of Casta paintings from 1763 that is kept in the collection at the Museo de América in Madrid. They represent the families, father, mother and son of the various castes and social strata, in situations of daily life. Reference bibliography: - Dallas Museum of Art. (n.d.). 'Saint Gertrude'.

        Magnificent oil painting on canvas with oval frame. Canvas measurements: 83 x 61, framed measurements: 93 x 71 cm. Miguel Mateo Maldonado y Cabrera (San Miguel Tlalixtac, Oaxaca, February 27, 1695-Mexico City, May 16, 1768) was a painter from New Spain, characterized as one of the greatest exponents of baroque painting of the viceroyalty. He was the chamber painter of Archbishop Manuel José Rubio y Salinas and founder in 1753 of the first painting academy in Mexico. Miguel Cabrera is present in numerous Spanish public and private collections such as the splendid series of castes at the Museum of America in Madrid, perhaps one of his masterpieces. In December 2008, this museum enriched its heritage with the acquisition of three more works by the painter. The appreciation and price in the art market for the works of Miguel Cabrera has grown dramatically during the last quarter of the 20th century. In 2004, in Madrid, 150,000 euros were paid at public auction for one of his works. However, noticeably higher prices have recently been reported for some caste paintings painted on copper.

        Miguel Cabrera (Antequera de Oaxaca, Mexico, 1715 / 1720 - Mexico, 1768) 'Saint Joseph and Child' Nun's shield. Oil on copper. Signed. 11,7 x 9 cm. The LACMA in Los Angeles, has a nun’s badge in its collection by the Mexican painter Francisco Martínez (Mexico, 1687-1758) dated circa 1750, with the central theme of The Annunciation surrounded by Saints. (Inv. M.2015.142.1) As Professor Ilona Katzew, Curator and Head of the Latin American Art Department at the LACMA in Los Angeles, notes with respect to these nun’s shields: 'This small-scale painting is a badge worn by nuns of the Order of the Immaculate Conception (also known as Conceptionists) in Mexico as part of their dress. Painted badges originated in Mexico in response to religious reforms introduced by the archbishop Francisco Manso y Zúñiga (ruled 1629-1635), who attempted to curtail the luxury and privilege of the convent lifestyle. He forbade nuns to wear shields made of gold, precious stones, and enamel. The nuns circumvented this rule by commissioning shields painted on copper or parchment, and set into frames made of tortoiseshell. Many of the badges were painted by the best artists of the day.' This genre of devotional art was widespread during the 17th and 18th centuries in Spain and the New Hispanic world. They tended to be small pictures painted or embroidered with religious scenes, which nuns wore on their chests as they took their vows. It is in the classic portraits of crowned nuns, also with flowers, veils and other ornaments, where we can see the relevance these badges had. On occasions, artists of the calibre of José de Páez, Luís Juárez or Miguel Cabrera who was the painter of this shield, made some of these badges. Miguel Cabrera was one of the most renowned painters in the field of eighteenth-century New Spanish painting, with an oeuvre that the Dallas Museum of Art defines as 'legendary: more than 309 works from his great studio have been documented.'

At the feet of Our Lady of the Rosary, the painter captures the fervour and devotion of the two Holy Fathers of the Catholic Church, faithful defenders of Mary's virginity, who kneel before her: St. Augustine, who praises the greatness of Mary and her assumption into heaven in the treatise he wrote ('She alone deserved to give birth to a God and man, made the throne of God and the palace of the eternal King'), and St. Gregory, who recognises Mary as the Mother of God ('Behold, the same Virgin and handmaid of the Lord is also called Mother... and she is truly His Mother, because in her womb, He became man by the work of the Holy Spirit and her flesh'). Miguel Cabrera, the New Spanish painter of colours, reflects the sweetness that always surrounds his characters.  Moreover, the sacred art he painted is always reverent and shows his devotion. The three figures he has painted are filled with expressiveness and an almost mystical religious voluptuousness, with a contrast of light and shadow that lends realism to the characters, placing us almost as if we were before them as they pray.
