A divine soldier, an archangel cleans his harquebus in a striking contrast of force and ethereal beauty. He is believed to be a protector, thus the heavy 14th century matchlock gun. Dressed in gilded brocades, the angel is a regal presence in a luminous landscape. Americo Tinoco captures the mystic soul of Peru, painting elegant replicas of colonial paintings found in Cuzco's convents. Titled Arcabucero in Spanish.
