SNUFF BOX. HORN, WOOD, METAL. SPAIN, 1861.

Pastoral box. Carved horn, wood, metal. Spanish school, 1861. Submits registrations. Oval box made of antler carved in its colour, with wood on the lid to reinforce it, decorated on the outside with a series of engraved elements. On the base there is an animal or monster, on the lid there is a monstrance or ostensorium with a cross in the centre and a large base with geometric elements, surrounded by angular shapes acting as a frame. Under the antler hinge there is the date of the piece's creation (1861) and, between two bands of angular elements, an inscription (I am from francys / inverted d / a rhombus / poios), alluding to the owner (and possibly the craftsman) of the work. These types of boxes, of popular tradition, were common in ancient times and were usually made by shepherds or cattle breeders themselves to store snuff or tobacco.

THE SACRIFICE OF THE OLD COVENANT. OIL ON BOARD. 17TH CENTURY, AFTER R...

Sacrifice of the Mosaic Law. Oil on copper. 17th century, inspired by Rubens, Peter Paul (Siegen, 1577-Antwerp, 1640). Oil on panel depicting a figurative scene located in a building of great importance due to the columns shown. To the right, an altar with a priest, a sacrificed lamb, and bread on a table. In the center, a kneeling man offers another lamb. Towards the left, a crowd gathers around the Ark of the Covenant, above which is a crown held by two angels. When the Lord chose the children of Israel as His people, He established through Moses the worship that was to be given to Him, distinguishing between bloody and unbloody sacrifices. This work addresses this theme, depicting an altar with bloody sacrifices and the Ark of the Covenant. This work is somewhat loosely inspired by a work by Peter Paul Rubens (Siegen, 1577–Antwerp, 1640). It is one of the tapestries that make up the series known as The Triumph of the Eucharist (manufactured by Jan Il Raes, Hans Vervoert, and Jacques Fobert, c. 1625–33, wool and silk, 490 x 670 cm, National Heritage Madrid, Monastery of the Descalzas Reales, inv. no. 00614220). The original handwritten sketch by Rubens, dated around 1626, is held at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston (USA).

Chapel of the Immaculate Conception. Sculpture, carved wood, glass, metal. Second half of the 18th century.
