      • PEDRO LÓPEZ CALDERÓN. ALEGORÍA DEL PATRONATO DE LA VIRGEN DE GUADALUPE SOBRE EL REINO DE LA NUEVA ESPAÑA.
        Jun. 07, 2022

        PEDRO LÓPEZ CALDERÓN. ALEGORÍA DEL PATRONATO DE LA VIRGEN DE GUADALUPE SOBRE EL REINO DE LA NUEVA ESPAÑA.

        Est: €12,000 - €18,000

        Pedro López Calderón (Puebla, México, s.XVIII) Alegoría de la protección de la Virgen de Guadalupe sobre Nueva España. Óleo sobre lienzo. Firmado y localizado en México. La Virgen aparece en el centro en actitud orante recogiendo sus manos en el centro del pecho, vestida con túnica rosa y manto azul que le cubre la cabeza, decorado con estrellas. Se encuentra sobre una luna en cuarto creciente sostenida por un ángel y rodeada de una corte celestial de querubines y figuras santas que le ofrecen coronas así como de las apariciones de la Virgen al indio Juan Diego en el cerro de Tepeyac. En la parte inferior la flanquean el papa Benedicto XIV y una mujer vestida de indígena alegoría de América. La Guadalupana fue declarada patrona de la Ciudad de México en 1737 y protectora de la Nueva España en 1746, el Papa Benedicto XIV dispuso se incluyera su fiesta en el calendario litúrgico en 1754. Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe es una advocación mariana de la Iglesia Católica, cuya imagen tiene su principal centro de culto en la Basílica de Guadalupe, al norte de la Ciudad de México. Su referente iconográfico originario se encuentra en los grabados inmaculistas flamencos como los de Martín de Vos o Jerónimo Wierix. Pedro López Calderón a lo largo de toda su trayectoria especializó su producción en pintura de tipo religioso. La Iglesia Católica, como principal promotora de las artes en la América hispana, confió importantes encargos al pintor sobretodo las órdenes de San Agustín y San Francisco. Así mismo otro grupo de clientes fueron los particulares de origen español, reclamando la posesión de imaginería religiosa fiel a las exigencias de la Contrarreforma. López Calderón posee un extenso repertorio de obras representando a la Virgen Guadalupe mayoritariamente objeto de exportación a la metrópoli con diferentes formatos y recursos compositivos. Como indica José Ignacio Mayorga "La diversidad de formatos y calidades de las copias de la Virgen de Guadalupe por Pedro López Calderón, nos permite observar cómo este pintor produjo, tanto encargos personalizados como obra de producción más estandarizada para su fácil comercialización. Dicha dualidad puede hacerse extensible al conjunto de su obra, explicando en buena medida su irregularidad."

      • PEDRO LÓPEZ CALDERÓN (Mexico, first half of the XVIII century) "Virgin of Guadalupe". Oil on canvas. Relined.
        Dec. 29, 2021

        PEDRO LÓPEZ CALDERÓN (Mexico, first half of the XVIII century) "Virgin of Guadalupe". Oil on canvas. Relined.

        Est: €5,000 - €6,000

        PEDRO LÓPEZ CALDERÓN (Mexico, first half of the XVIII century) "Virgin of Guadalupe". Oil on canvas. Relined. Presents repainting. It has a frame of later period. Signed and located in the lower central area. Measurements: 163 x 115 cm; 180 x 131 cm (frame). Inscribed in a mandorla, the praying Virgin is presented accompanied by numerous saints and little saints that occupy the rest of the composition. The work also presents small borders, where the figure of the Virgin is repeated. It is remarkable the fact that the characters have crowns in their hands, thus combining the theme of the coronation of the Virgin with the iconography of the Guadalupana. This representation acquired great richness and variety especially from the 17th century onwards. Our Lady of Guadalupe is a Marian invocation of the Catholic Church, whose image has its main center of worship in the Basilica of Guadalupe, in the north of Mexico City. According to Mexican oral tradition, it is believed that the Virgin Mary appeared four times to Saint Juan Diego Cuauhtlatoatzin on the hill of Tepeyac. Juan Diego, in the last apparition of the Virgin, carried in his ayate some flowers that he cut on Tepeyac, according to the Virgin's order. He unfolded his ayate before Bishop Juan de Zumárraga, revealing the image of the Virgin Mary, dark and with mestizo features. The Mesoamerican peoples from remote times already venerated in the hill of Tepeyac a deity called Tonantzin, hence there is a certain syncretism with the assimilation of the message brought by the Virgin Mary. This event was known as the Miracle of the Roses, and was recorded in the "Nican Mopohua", a text presumably written by the Indian Antonio Valeriano. Pedro López Calderón was a Mexican painter active during the first half of the 18th century. Dedicated mainly to religious painting, he collaborated regularly with orders such as the Franciscan order of San Luis Potosí. The scholar J. Armando Hernández points out that at the moment there is very little information that we know about the biography of this painter, apart from the fact that he worked in Mexico at the beginning of the century and that he was deputy major of the brotherhood and image of Nuestra Señora del Socorro of the painters' guild (Mexico City), and that he was a tertiary of the order of St. Augustine. Apparently he found a niche of work in the north of the viceroyalty, and especially with the Franciscan order, as evidenced by a "San Juan Nepomuceno" that belonged to the convent of Propaganda Fide de Guadalupe and the works "San Juan Nepomuceno" and "San Nicolás de Bari" in Durango. In addition, we know of a "Santa Cena" in the church of San Fernando, Mexico, and another "San Juan Nepomuceno" signed in that city in 1723. Hernandez also indicates that it is also known that in 1726 he appraised the paintings that had belonged to an important captain, and in 1729 those of the Marquis of Valle de la Colina. Likewise, in 1722 he appraised, together with Antonio de Torres, the paintings that had belonged to the master gold shooter Don Pedro de Palacios. This last piece of information, Hernández points out, gives us clues about the masters with whom López Calderón lived, such as the aforementioned Antonio de Torres and his contemporary Miguel Cabrera. Currently, other works by López Calderón are preserved in the sacristy of the San Francisco church in San Luis de Potosí, in addition to a work dedicated to him in the presbytery. Also in the Museo Regional Potosino.
