El Santuario de Guadalupe

Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA

El Santuario de Guadalupe, Santa Fe, New Mexico
"Built in 1781, just west of the Santa Fe Plaza, the historic El Santuario de Guadalupe church is now an art and history museum. The Santuario contains the Archdiocese of Santa Fe's collection of New Mexican santos (carved images of the saints), Italian Renaissance paintings, and Mexican baroque paintings. Among the treasured works is Our Lady of Guadalupe, one of the largest and finest oil paints of the Spanish Southwest, dated 1783 and signed by Jose de Alzibar, one of Mexico's most renowned painters. The church is located at 100 South Guadalupe Street."
