WHAT: CRAFTS
The renowned Peruvian artisan César Urbano, shows us how to prepare an authentic Retablo Ayacuchano (Ayacucho Altarpiece). This artistic genre has its origin more than 200 years ago, in colonial times when authorities used them to evangelize indigenous populations through the iconography of Catholic saints or biblical passages. Mr. Urbano prepared the Retablo Ayacuchano that the Peruvian Government presented to Pope Francis when he visited Peru in 2018.
