A set of four contemporary Mexican racy / risque / taboo ex-voto / retablos attributed to Alfredo Vilchis, circa 2010. A captivating and humorous collection of Mexican ex-votos (retablos), attributed to the renowned "neighborhood artist" of Mexico City, Alfredo Vilchis Roque. Each piece represents a modern, secular, and "racy" evolution of the traditional 19th-century devotional art form. Each piece is in a "deliberate distressed condition" to mimic the weathered look of 19th-century antiques, and each measure approximately 9"W x 7"H. Unlike classic retablos that thank saints for surviving illnesses or accidents, these "new" ex-votos depict the gritty, scandalous, and often hilarious realities of modern urban life. The collection includes: -The Piercing Penance: A woman thanking Saint Rita for her successful (and painful) nipple piercings...

An elegant 19th-century French hammered copper fish poacher, complete with its lid and removable draining insert. Its elongated silhouette and softly rounded ends emphasise the warm tones of the copper, while the textured surface catches the light beautifully. Two substantial dark metal side handles, secured with copper rivets, provide a refined contrast to the lustrous body. The fitted lid follows the same understated lines and features a matching central handle. The tinned interior is notably clean and well preserved, retaining its perforated draining insert with two upright lifting handles. A paper manufacturing label remains inside the vessel, identifying its French origin, solid pure copper construction and hand-applied tinning in the traditional manner of coppersmiths. Originally intended for preparing whole fish, this piece also has a strong decorative presence. Its generous proportions and simple, balanced design make it an attractive addition to a country kitchen, a dresser or a thoughtfully arranged collection of antique copper cookware...
