Below: Modern image of the Virgin of Charity of El Cobre in the Miami hermitage and other early colonial "dressed images" of the Virgin elsewhere in the Americas: "La Conquistadora," Santa Fe (New Mexico); the Virgin of Copacabana (Bolivia, courtesy of Norma Klahn); the Virgin of Zapopan, Guadalajara (Mexico). Some are also good examples of what may be considered modern and colonial forms of religious kitsch.
