Showcasing the prestigious collection of the Davenport Museum of Art -- among the largest and most important Mexican colonial collections outside of Mexico City -- this book addresses the development of Mexican colonial painting and its relationship with European art and civilisation, the changing political and social dynamics of colonial Mexico and the contributions of its indigenous peoples.

"A formidable contribution to the study of an insufficiently esteemed artistic tradition..." -- Library Journal.
