Cuzco (Cusco) School - Ángel Arcabucero (Angel with Arquebus)
Located in Stockholm, SE
Cuzco (Cusco) School, 19th century, Peru
Ángel Arcabucero (Angel with Arquebus)
oil on canvas
unframed 58 × 41 cm (22.8 × 16.1 in)
framed 66 × 49 cm (26.0 × 19.3 in)
No signature
Provenance:
Acquired in Peru in 1986 by the previous owner.
Essay:
This painting portrays a celestial figure identified as an ángel arcabucero – literally an “arquebus-bearing angel,” shown as an archangel wielding an early firearm (arquebus) instead of the traditional sword. The angel is richly attired in the fashion of an Andean noble or Spanish aristocrat, with an ornate embroidered coat, lace collar, and billowing sleeves, in keeping with the distinctive iconography of these militaristic angels. Such ángeles arcabuceros emerged in the late 17th century in colonial Peru and were especially popular in Cuzco School painting, replacing the sword of Catholic warrior-angels with a gun to signify the heavenly army’s power in a modern guise. The graceful figure, dressed as a nobleman yet serving a divine role, underscores the fusion of earthly authority and celestial protection – a sartorial and symbolic innovation unique to the Andean region’s religious art. This iconography, found only in Spanish colonial territories, resonated with local believers and visually confirmed the angel’s identity as a heavenly soldier guarding the faithful, his delicate hands cradling a long-barreled arquebus as if it were a sacred instrument.
The Ángel Arcabucero exemplifies the visual hallmarks of the Cuzco School, a major Peruvian painting...

Circa 1860.
Signature below right, partially visible.
Size with frame 59cm x 49cm

The portrait depicts a young girl with an elegant hairstyle, her hair carefully tied back. Dressed in the fashion of the 1860s, her light lilac dress reflects the synthetic aniline colors, a novelty in fashion at the time.
A black bow at the neck and slightly black straps accentuate her attire.
Represented at mid-length, with a mysterious and melancholic gaze, suggesting a mourning endured over a year ago.
The portrait, executed in pastels, chalks, and charcoals on paper, highlights the mastery and speed of the artist's execution.
