Abstract

In this text we will study some of the examples of trampantojos in the most outstanding mural painting of viceroyal America, studying both the imitation of architectural motifs (where we can see the influence of architectural treaties as well as other publications not always directly related to the artistic field), such as the recreation of real objects (curtains, altarpieces, sculptures...). While the examples analyzed show a limited quality, they are interesting not because they are a popular example of the desire to fill material poverty, seeking to equate itself to other art centers of the first order.
