All auctions / Arts & Graphics / École du Cusco (XX) - L'Archange Saint Michel le Jour du Jugement Dernier


- Oil on canvas. Original silk. Hand-signed by Abraham Calle, traditional artist from Cusco. - The confluence of the eschatological and the military within the Cusqueña School finds in the angelic iconography—as in this superb Saint Michael with a strict armor and Baroque dynamism—its most eloquent and baroque expression. Far from being mere devotional representations, these figures synthesize the drama of the Final Judgment with the display of theological and imperial power: the archangel, militarized under aristocratic attire of Viceroyal and Roman influence, wields the blazing sword against the powers of evil while in his opposite hand he holds the scales of psychostasis, the supreme instrument of ultraterrestrial justice. In this visual hybridization, celestial hierarchies are transformed into a divine militia where laces, gold brocade, and resplendent armors not only indoctrinate in fear of the Divine Judgment, but also legitimize the cosmic and earthly order through an aesthetic of dazzling sober warrior-ness and courtly splendor. - Image dimensions without frame: 77 x 114 cm / 91 x 128 cm with exclusive custom frame. At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all unique, original and irreproducible. Each piece in our gallery is the result of deep dedication, a creative vision, and masterful technique, qualities that guarantee its authenticity. The works we sell are not industrial reproductions; they are pieces created individually by recognized artists, each with its own story and essence. Originality is the foundation of our commitment to excellence and, therefore, every painting or sculpture that is part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its singularity.

We are proud to offer works that not only beautify spaces, but also connect our clients with the richness of human expression through the most authentic art. Thus, we guarantee that every work leaving our gallery is a one-of-a-kind piece in the world, with no replicas whatsoever, and a showcase of the innovation and passion of the artists we work with. Certain lots, due to their age and value, require an export permit granted by the Ministry of Culture. Although it is an administrative procedure, it is indispensable to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free international circulation. Montbaron Gallery is committed to offering its clients original, unique and irreproducible artworks, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of each piece in our collection. To ensure transparency and trust in every acquisition, we offer a digital Certificate of Guarantee, signed by a certified art historian. This certificate certifies that the acquired work has been authenticated by our specialists, who verify its authorship, origin, and state of conservation. The Certificate of Guarantee includes full details about the piece, such as author, date of creation, technique used, and dimensions. The digital Certificate of Guarantee will be issued upon the client’s request, providing an official reference for the piece purchased. The document will be delivered in digital format and will be signed by an art historian from our gallery, ensuring its validity and support. We are committed to the satisfaction and confidence of our clients, so any questions about authenticity or the condition of the work will be addressed professionally and diligently. To request your Certificate of Guarantee, please contact us through our usual channels. As experts in art logistics, at Montbaron Gallery we are committed to ensuring that each piece reaches its destination safely and in the best possible condition. To this end, we work with a network of professionals specialized in art transport, who guarantee maximum care throughout the process. It is important to note that the shipping cost prices shown in the listing are indicative and subject to modification depending on various circumstances. These include fluctuations in transport market rates, changes in delivery location, the size and weight of the work, and possible extraordinary circumstances, such as fuel cost fluctuations or adjustments in customs and import tariffs. The final shipping cost will be calculated precisely based on these factors, and the client will always be informed in advance before proceeding with shipment. Our aim is to offer the best possible service, adapting to each client’s needs and ensuring the work reaches its destination quickly and safely, with no surprises. The frame shown in the previous images has been added to the work by a third party or by the seller, and is therefore not an integral part of the object. This frame is provided at no additional cost so that, when the work arrives at your home, it can be exhibited immediately on your wall. Accordingly, no damages to the frame that do not affect the integrity of the work will be accepted as a valid reason to open a claim or request a cancellation.
