Nicario Jimenez Quispe's (1957- ) vintage Peruvian altarpiece: Mask Shop. Artist from Ayacucho, Peru, a peasant community in the high Andes. He studied sculpture in his youth and makes traditional Andean altarpieces. Each is a small hand-crafted wooden, hinged box filled with figures, animals and objects that tell a story. Spanish priests used them to teach about Catholic saints. The main altar pieces represent religious, historical and everyday life events. They are made by hand with a mix of boiled potato and gypsum powder. He is a 3rd generation retablo artist and learned the tradition from his father and grandfather. He lives in Naples, FL, where he creates retablos that feature different stories of the struggles of Latino immigrants and scenes of Hispanic neighborhoods in South Florida. Made in Peru. Size: 8 x 3 1/4 x 13 3/4 in. #1336 Location C3
