The Mother’s Church of Santa Luzia and its retables

ABSTRACT The Santa Luzia Mother’s Church, in the city of Santa Luzia, holds a group of retables which wasn’t duly analyzed in the context of Art History. Despite being significantly important to Luso-Brazilian carving of the 18th century. In view of the questions that arise on the topic, the present article aims to study three retables of said Church, with the intention of knowing the historic and stylistic aspects which influenced its production, as well as the relationship to other sister retables found in Minas Gerais.

摘要：位于圣卢西亚市的圣卢西亚圣母教堂（Santa Luzia Mother’s Church）藏有一组祭坛装饰屏（retables），尽管其对18世纪葡属巴西木雕艺术而言具有举足轻重的地位，但该组作品尚未在艺术史研究语境中得到充分的分析与探讨。鉴于该研究领域尚存诸多待解的学术问题，本文旨在对该教堂中的三件祭坛装饰屏展开研究，以期厘清影响其创作的历史脉络与风格特征，并探究其与米纳斯吉拉斯州（Minas Gerais）境内其他同类祭坛装饰屏之间的关联。
