VINTAGE 1980'sHANDMADE HAND-PAINTEDNUESTRA SEÑORA DEL CARMENWOOD ON TIN RETABLO/PLAQUE BY WELL KNOWN NEW MEXICO SANTERA ARTIST MARIE ROMERO CASHNuestra Señora del Carmen or Our Lady of Mt. Carmel by Hispanic Retablo artist Marie Romero Cash
Our Lady of Mount Carmel, or Virgin of Carmel, is the title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary in her role as patroness of the Carmelite Order, particularly within the Catholic Church. The first Carmelites were Christian hermits living on Mount Carmel in the Holy Land during the late 12th and early to mid-13th century.
While praying, Our Lady appeared to St. Simon Stock, giving him the Brown Scapular and making this promise: "Take this Scapular, it shall be a sign of salvation, a protection in danger and a pledge of peace. Whosoever dies wearing this scapular shall not suffer eternal fire."
Along with being the patroness of the Carmelites, she is also the patron saint for Chile, for Bolivia, for protection from danger, and for deliverance from Purgatory.
Signed and titled on back. Measures approximately: 3 1/2" W x 4 1/4”H.
This beautiful retablo is hand painted on wood and affixed to a handmade tin backdrop created by Don Cash. The painting has slight wear not atypical of its age and is quite endearing. Adhesive bumper pads were at one time affixed to the back to protect the wall ( adhesive shadows are slightly evident)
Marie Romero Cash is a native-born Hispanic raised in Santa Fe, the daughter of prominent traditional tin-work artists, the late Senaida and Emilio Romero. Marie has become a leading authority on the Santero tradition in New Mexico. As an artist, she distinguishes herself by bringing together a vast knowledge of traditional art forms with a zeal for exploration and innovation. She is able to maintain a reverence for the ancestry and tradition of the art forms, while at the same time, inject them with a contemporary sensibility born of worldliness, and the maturity of a developed artist. Marie's independence as a woman and commitment as a mother play significant roles in her approach, her subject matter, and the power of her work.
Marie is an 81 year old iconic folk artist and santera, “saint maker, who resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her work can be found in the following collections: Museum of International Folk Art; The Albuquerque Museum; Museum of Spanish Colonial Art; the Smithsonian Institute; The Vatican; The Archdiocese of Santa Fe; The Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center and many private collections.
I have included a photo of the artist surrounded by her work.
