CANO BACA, Nathael et al. Material Witness to a Missing Altarpiece: Panel Painting Set from the Former Convent of San Francisco Tepeyanco, Tlaxcala, Mexico. Intervención (Méx.

This research presents the recovery of three fragments of panel painting in the state of Tlaxcala, Mexico. At the end of the twentieth century, these fragments were subject to a theoretical study, applying an interdisciplinary and inter-institutional methodology of historiographic and technical analysis in order to understand their meaning, technique, and alteration.

The documentary testimony provided by the formal historical analysis, and the interpretation of the results on the technology and deterioration of the ruined complex helped relate these to a pictorial corpus that was likely inserted in the main altarpiece of the Franciscan conventual temple of Tepeyanco in the Noble and Loyal Republic of Indians of Tlaxcala in the 16th century.

Palabras llave : panel painting; conservation; technical studies in conservation; altarpiece; Tlaxcala; Mexico.
