  • Mobility, Violence, and the Afterlives of a Peruvian Painting at Sea

    Open AccessRebecca Earle, Susan Deans-Smith et al.ARTICLEItinerario2026

    Mobility has become a central focus of research into material culture. We chart the life-cycle of one mobile object: a painting commissioned in 1790s Peru by an indigenous man, painted by an indigenous artist, and intended for the king of Spain. Its history demonstrates the importance of exploring not simply the fact that objects moved around, but the particular reasons why they were in motion, and the particular ways in which they circulated. In…

  • Praying to Portraits

    Susan Deans-Smith, Susan Deans‐smithARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2024

    Adam Jasienski's Praying to Portraits provides an ambitious and wide-ranging analysis of a largely understudied art category of portraiture a lo divino—sacred portraiture. Heterogeneous in nature, sacred portraiture included donor portraits, portraits of sitters in the guise of saints, “true portraits” of recently deceased canonized individuals, portraits that had been repainted, and, in some instances, royal portraits. Living individuals were po…

  • Before Mestizaje

    Susan Deans-Smith, Susan Deans‐smithARTICLEThe Journal of Interdisciplinary…2019Referencias: 4

    Before Mestizaje is a major contribution to an increasingly sophisticated literature about racial mixture in colonial Latin America with its critical scrutiny of the “sistema de castas” and the political, legal, social, and cultural variables that shaped its development. Such studies have challenged the very existence of such a “sistema” and a top-down imposition of its political logic. Rather, socioracial hierarchies in colonial Latin America we…

    Susan Deans-Smith, Susan Deans‐smithARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2009Citada por: 16

    Colonial art in Latin America has not traditionally generated the same intense interest that has been lavished on the pre-Columbian and contemporary art of Latin America, at least in the Anglophone literature and academy. Thankfully, this appears to be changing. The past decade has witnessed a surge of spectacular exhibitions in the United States on colonial Latin American art: The Colonial Andes: Tapestries and Silverwork, 1530 – 1830 (2004); Pa…

    This chapter talks about the history of the indigenous peoples of the Gulf Coast. It focuses on the modern-day geographical territory of Veracruz. The jurisdiction of Misantla seems to be the most extensive area of Totonac speech. The Gulf Coast populations were devastated by the Spanish presence, a combination of disease, Spanish atrocities, and enslavement and deportation to the Antilles, although the impact was by no means homogeneous througho…

    A government monopoly provides an excellent case study of state-society relationships. This is especially true of the tobacco monopoly in colonial Mexico, whose revenues in the later half of the eighteenth century were second only to the silver tithe as the most valuable source of government income. This comprehensive study of the tobacco monopoly illuminates many of the most important themes of eighteenth-century Mexican social and economic hist…
