  Surveys the diverse styles, subjects and iconography of painting in Latin America between the 16th and 19th centuries. Comparing and contrasting the Viceroyalties of New Spain, with its centre in modern-day Mexico, and Peru, the authors explore the very different ways the two regions responded to the influence of the Europeans and their art.
