The Resurrection.
Gaspar de la Cueva, c 1630. Polychromed wood. 109 cm
This was made by a Spanish sculptor residing in upper Perú, a pupil of Montañéz. One should note especially the slender figure, the elegantly drapery of the robes, the delicate polychroming, the melancholy expression of the face with wide brows, the characteristic touches of its creator.
