Description
The iconography of crowned nuns crystallizes a female rite of passage within the conventual sphere. It flourished in the Viceroyalty of New Spain between the 17th and 19th centuries, solidifying the image of Christ's bride. These portraits capture the serene dignity of the vocation, adorned with crowns and bouquets symbolizing purity and sacrifice.
