LSE4313708
Image title
I baptize an Indian. The character receiving the baptism does not seem to be an Amerindian, unlike the two characters in the background. This painting could be an allegory of Jesuit evangelizing mission on all continents. However, it allows us to evoke the important role played by this religious order in southern Brazil in evangelization but also in the protection of the Indians through the system of reductions, groups of indigenous populations around the conventual buildings. French painting 18th century. Musee du Nouveau Monde, La Rochelle.
