Almost invariably
the oldest and most beautiful building in the Maya towns is the
Catholic church. Many of these churches survive from the first century
after the Conquest, while others have been destroyed and rebuilt. Jose
Antonio Gonzalez Escobar, son of the first Tz'utuhil Maya painter Rafael
Gonzalez y Gonzalez, is fascinated by the architecture of these churches
and the activity around them. Most of his paintings contain both a
church and a market. Unlike the next generation of painters, he is
not trying to document the variety of Maya customs and traditions, but
just those aspects which catch his fancy. Although he often repeats the
particular churches and towns, the paintings are always different. On
this page, many of the paintings are arranged by town, so you can see
how he changes things even with the same subject. |
