'Saint Rose of Lima' Art Gallery Paintings View by Region Andes Colonial Replicas 
Tenderly cradling the baby
Jesus, Saint Rose of Lima is crowned with flowers. Born
on August 30, 1586, Isabel Flores de Oliva was the
first American to be canonized, in 1671. Each year the
devout make a pilgrimage to the chapel in Santa Rosa
de Quives where she lived and worshipped. Alberto Torres creates
a glowing portrait of the patroness of Peru, America and
the Philippines. He presents the work in an elaborate frame
of carved cedar wood with bronze leaf. Titled "Santa
Rosa de Lima" in Spanish.
