Wooden Framed Retablo “Shot Through the Heart” 26621
A 13” tall hand-painted and framed wooden retablo with a center image “Shot Through the Heart.”
Retablos are typically painted depictions of important religious icons found throughout the Americas as well as Europe. Nichos are wooden frames or boxes – much like a shadow box – which is used to either frame an iconic image or to serve as a mini-altar.
Some retablos, though, depict everyday occurrences and this particular retablo depicts a heart that’s been hurt. Not all love is kind but from that which isn’t we learn and try again…
Bold colors were used on this hand-crafted folk art piece including plum, white, red and yellow.
It measures 13” in height, 6” in width and is ready to hang.
