Santos Retablos, 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating work of art by American artist Maude Valle, showcasing a vibrant and intricately detailed altarpiece from the 1930s or 1940s. This watercolor, colored pencil, and graphite drawing on paperboard, with a wooden frame, presents a rich tableau of Catholic iconography, reflecting the deep-rooted religious traditions of the United States during this period. The composition centers around the crucified Christ, surrounded by an array of saints and symbols, all rendered in a multicolored and richly textured scheme. The brown background adds depth and contrast to the bright hues of the santos, or holy figures, which include Santa Maria, Santa Rosa, and San Jose, among others. The use of watercolor, colored pencil, and graphite heightening imbues the piece with a sense of depth and texture, bringing the spiritual figures to life. This artwork, now part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of America during the thirties and forties. The altarpiece, or retablo, is a decorative art form deeply rooted in the Roman Catholic tradition, and this work by Maude Valle stands as a significant contribution to the genre. The piece is not only an object of religious devotion but also an important piece of American art history, showcasing the intricacy and detail that characterized the arts during this period. The Santos Retablos, 1936, by Maude Valle, is a must-see for anyone interested in American art, religious art, or the history of the arts in the United States. Its intricate details, rich color palette, and deep symbolism make it a captivating and thought-provoking work of art that continues to inspire and intrigue viewers to this day.
