La devoción de la Virgen del Sagrario de la Catedral de Toledo en Hispanoamérica. Difusión y culto durante la Edad Moderna a través de sus verae effigiei
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The importance of verae effigiei in the religious and artistic sphere during the Modern Age was enormous and motivates us to scrutinize a fairly unknown case: the Virgen del Sagrario of Toledo Cathedral. Based on unpublished documentation preserved in the Archivo Capitular, and the analysis of several visual sources (canvases and engravings), this paper offers an account of how this cult spread in New Spain during the aforementioned period. Furthermore, we have been able to determine the impact of the inauguration in 1675 of the new throne, designed by Pedro de la Torre and Francisco Bautista and later realized by Virgilio Fanelli.
