Rafael Barradas y la pintura de tema religioso

Abstract

In this paper we study Rafael Barrada's paintings that have for subject sacred narration from the Bible (New Testament) and other popular christian legends. First, we think these works as a story by sequences, each one integrated part of a narrative macrosequence. Then, we relate them with his Gaucho and Estatnpones, analysis that permits us to understand Barrada's last production as engaged with other reality: of his own country and Latin America.
