is the patron saint of Mexico, and her image
is iconic in Mexican and Chicano art. This

the incorporation of indigenous and Spanish
elements in the apparition account and miracle
stories, and colonial representations of the
Virgin in paintings and woodcuts. The lecture
will conclude with a brief discussion of some of
the recent conversations over the canonization
of Juan Diego and the appropriation of images
of Guadalupe in contemporary art.
Presented by guest lecturer Kristin Mihaylovich.

by Romulus and Remus to the Renaissance,
