This retablo represents the religious procession of the Holy week in Ayacucho, Peru, one of the most important cultural displays of the year. As traditional forms of religious art in the region, retablos capture the passion and customs of the city. This interesting scene is composed of hand shaped and painted figurines which are carefully arranged inside a handcrafted wooden box. Display your retablo in a safe yet approachable place to enjoy the trademark craftsmanship, colors and detail of fine folk art and culture of Ayacucho, Peru.(Click on the picture for a closer view.)
