3 Mexican Prayer Paintings
#198882

3 Mexican paintings, all commissioned as supplications to the Saints. Seeking Divine Intervention or remembrance are the families of the painter who fell off a wall, the little girl who was struck by a truck, and the patient in the hospital. These are all painted on scrap metal, one on the back of a Coca Cola sign, and would have been important items in humble Mexican homes. Circa 1930-1960's.
