OLMEDO MUNOZ, Martín. The Vision of the Augustinian World in Meztitlán: Ideals and Virtues in Three Mural Paintings. An. Inst. Investig. Estét [online]. 2009, vol.31, n.94, pp.27-58. ISSN 0185-1276. https://doi.org/10.22201/iie.18703062e.2009.94.2284.
This article studies three sixteenth-century mural paintings in the monastery at Meztitlán, Hidalgo. The text as a whole deals with the Augustinians' use of the image and demonstrates the union between the friars and the region, as well as the use of indigenous elements to help put across the Catholic message. The first part focuses on the iconography of a painting situated in the refectory of the monastery, while the second examines the iconographic significance of two images from the stair-well of the monastery and their relation to the emblematics of the period; known as Triumph of Chastity and Triumph of Patience.
