| Sumario: | After a century that the Jesuits arrived in America, the Maximum College of the Province of Paraguay began to build its current church. The ornamentation of it was carried out with all the guidelines imposed by the baroque. This did not exclude the important theme of the paintings, a matter sensitive to the Jesuits, who sought to exalt the virtues of their saints and missionaries through representations that were placed in all their churches. In this work we review the vicissitudes and identification of this collection, composed of a dozen paintings and fifty portraits, analyzing in depth two emblematic works and adding as an appendix the works consigned in the inventory of 1767. |
