[MEXICAN FOLK ART]. A Group of Four Hand-Painted Ex-Voto Retablos. [Mexico or the United States, ca. 1960s-1970s]. Four hand-painted Ex-Voto offerings, each offering prayers for ill family members along with patron saints (in this case, these Ex-Votos depict the Virgin of San Juan). Three have the name of the supplicant. Oil on reclaimed tin panels. Sizes range from approximately 8 x 10? to 8 x 11 ??. All with marginal nail holes, some wear, soiling, bumps or bends to tin sheets, some visible occasional rust, some occasional chipping with some loss of image or text (one Ex-Voto is quite worn with significant loss of text). Good condition.
