Mexican Tin Retablo, Framed, St. Joseph with Christ Child

Mexico

Late 19th Century | Tin, Paint | Item 2624

This is a crisp and beautiful tin retablo of St. Joseph holding the Christ Child. The colors are bold and pure, giving the overall feeling of power and clarity. Interestingly, this is painted on what appears to be a tin dish, or pan with a 2″ tall rim all the way around.
