‘Christ of the Earthquakes’ by Alberto Torres
Alberto Torres portrays Jesus on the cross with his mother Mary, Mary Magdalene and Saint John. The Bible tells how at the hour of Christ’s death, darkness fell and the earth trembled. A replica of an anonymous 18th century work in the La Paz Cathedral Museum, this beautiful painting also makes reference to an image of “Christ of the Earthquakes” venerated in the Cuzco Cathedral.
