This rare very rare 19th century retablo painting represents 'La Alma de San Jose'.
The Soul of Joseph depicts Saint Joseph cloaked in colors of green and gold (colors of new life) with his soul represented in the form of the 'Espiritu Santo', or as shown here, in the form of a white dove. Standing counterpart to this subject is the more common 'Alma de Maria', which as the name would suggest, represents Mary's soul in the form of the Holy Spirit.
Dimensions: 14 inches vertical x 10 inches horizontal.
Condition notes: scattered paint loss, crimped corners, minor surface scratches.
