Agustin Arrieta (Santa Ana Chiautempan, Tlaxcala, Mexico, 1803 - Puebla, Mexico, 1874)"Still Life with Prickly Pears"Oil on canvas.80 x 106 cm.As indicated in the report by art historian José Gómez Frechina:"The 19th-century painter José Agustín Arrieta, son of the Basque Tomás Arrieta and María Rita Fernández, lived in the Mexican city of Puebla from an early age, where he began his artistic training at the Academy of Fine Arts under the supervision of painters such as Julián Ordóñez and Lorenzo Zandejas at the time of the recent independence of Mexico.Arrieta painted portraits (Portrait of General Don Felipe Codallos's Family, Soumaya Museum) and religious paintings in the early years of his artistic career. Later, distancing himself from academic influences, he captured passages of sociological value on his canvases, reflecting the reality of the society of Puebla, especially the lower classes (Pulquería Gathering). He became famous for his paintings of "chinas poblanas" (women from Puebla) and especially for his still life paintings, known at the time as "dining room paintings."Examples of his still life work and social-themed paintings were shown in exhibitions at the Academy of San Carlos in Mexico in 1850 and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Puebla in 1851, 1853, and 1855. Despite being one of the principal artists working in Angelópolis, as stated by his biographer Francisco Pérez Salazar, he faced certain difficulties: "However, his talent and skill were not enough to secure him a comfortable position, and around 1852, he had to take on the role of caretaker at the Congress to make a living."The importance of the culinary world and the inclusion of fruits and crafts typical of Puebla and Tlaxcala are reflected in José Agustín Arrieta's still life paintings, as in this unique "Still Life with Prickly Pears," the symbolic nature of which is quite clear due to the presence of the nopal (prickly pear cactus) and its fruits. This sacred cactus, related to an Aztec legend identifying it with the founding of Mexico-Tenochtitlan, appears on the National Coat of Arms of Mexico. This native species of cactus, also known by other names such as xoconostle or chumbera, found in dry and semi-desert environments, was introduced to many areas of the Mediterranean by the Spanish in the 16th century.The presence of fruits native to Mexico, such as limes, papayas, pitahayas, mameyes, and prickly pears, is often accompanied by other elements such as bottles, crystal glasses, pots, or baskets in Arrieta's still life work.The still life in question features a jug in the central axis of the composition and two wicker baskets full of prickly pears (also known in the Hispanic world as higos chumbos) - one of them overturned. The popularity of the nopal and its edible fruit in Mexico is well-known, as are the fleshy paddles of the plant, highly appreciated for their healing properties.In the foreground are two clay pots, common ceramic plates with floral decoration, a polychromed clay oil bottle and an oil lamp with glass sections. Various types of prickly pears with white or orange-reddish peel are depicted. It is also worth mentioning the scissors, the prickly pear sliced at both ends, and sectioned to show the edible part, and the presence of two snails (Helix aspersa Maxima).As is customary in Arrieta's paintings, there is special attention to the depiction of objects and textures, observed in the glass, the clever arrangement of scissors with their shadows, and in the clay pots with water droplets." Reference bibliography:Castro Morales, Efraín, Homenaje Nacional a José Agustín Arrieta (1803-1874), Museo Nacional de Arte (México) INBA 1994; Fraile Martín, Isabel, "Pintura y pintores en Puebla: Una revisión a los modelos y tendencias del siglo XIX" Estudio, 2015, n. 20, p.17-31.  The study by José Gómez Frechina is included with the lot.

Novo-Hispanic School. Possibly Potosí. Bolivia. Signed Fonceca, 1774."True Portrait of Our Lady of Soterraña"Oil on canvas glued to wood. Signed "fonceca pint." and dated 1774.41.5 x 31 cmThe cartouche at the bottom margin reads: "La Milagrosa Imagen de Nuestra Señora de la Soterraña venerada en Santa María de Nieva, especial defensora de rayos y centellas." (The Miraculous Image of Our Lady of Soterraña venerated in Santa María de Nieva, a special defender against lightning and sparks.)The Virgin of Soterraña is a Marian advocation venerated in the church of the town of Santa María la Real de Nieva in Segovia, where, as reported by Josemi Lorenzo in his interesting research on the church, "ten representations of the Virgin of Soterraña, eight pictorial and two sculptural," are found, indicating the strong devotional weight this image has historically had in the place where it appeared."The image of this Virgin Mary was found at the end of the 14th century buried in a cave on the hill that was then in the municipal district of Nieva. Its name, in fact, means 'subterranean' in old Castilian. As Lorenzo continues to explain, and as we indeed read on the cartouche of this painting, the image was the "special protector against storms and hail [and] was fundamental in an agrarian context which faced adverse weather."Its worship spread to other areas of Spain such as Navarra and Logroño, Lorenzo continues to report, "shepherds and sailors [...], the former through migration, the latter by sailing the sea, spread her virtues and devotion to places such as Argentina, Bolivia, and the Philippines, where a ninth example which has been moved to an unknown location is documented."Of the eight painted depictions in the parish church in Segovia, we would like to highlight the most complex of those preserved, from the first half of the 18th century, where the Virgin of Soterraña with the Child in her left arm is depicted, along with Ensign Alonso del Canto y Ocampo, conqueror of the Philippines in 1563. It is a votive offering made a century after the death of the ensign to whom it is dedicated, which adds additional interest to the painting, as Josemi Lorenzo affirms.Another highlight from amongst these eight is the True Portrait of the Virgin of Soterraña, "exhibited in the northern end" of the church, which, was donated by Alejo Bonifaz and painted in San Luis de Potosí in 1785.With the painting we have in the auction, added to the existing ones, we reach a dozen pictorial representations of this curious Marian advocation. Taking into account the expansion of the worship of the Virgin that we mentioned and that the painting was created in Potosí in 1785, it is reasonable to assume that this painting, from a similar time, came from the same cultural nucleus. Without a doubt, this True Portrait, with the accompanying angels and the liturgical scenery with candlesticks, candelabra, and drapery, is more elaborate than the True Portrait in the church.Reference bibliography:- Lorenzo Arribas, Josemi.
