Altarpiece of the Virgin of Guadalupe.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: José de Alcíbar The news that we have of his life is so scarce, such as that which indicates that he was a native of Texcoco, as are numerous works by this artist that have survived to this day, existing in Aguascalientes, Zacatecas and Guadalajara. A painter trained in New Spain workshops, in accordance with the old traditional use of the guilds, he became the artist recognized by the petulant Academy, whose members did not tire of condemning their contemporaries dedicated to the making of golden altarpieces. In contrast to the physiognomy of the sacred characters in his religious-themed painting, in the portrait he becomes a ruthless physiognomist who shows all the defects of his subjects.
Español: José de Alcíbar Son tan escasas las noticias que poseemos de su vida, como aquella que indica que fue natural de Texcoco, como numerosas las obras que de este artista han llegado hasta nuestros días, existentes en Aguascalientes, Zacatecas y Guadalajara. Pintor formado en talleres novohispanos, de acuerdo con el viejo uso tradicional de los gremios, se convirtió en el artista reconocido por la petulante Academia, cuyos miembros no se cansaron de condenar a sus contemporáneos dedicados a la hechura de retablos dorados. En contraste con la fisonomía de los personajes sagrados de su pintura de tema religioso, en el retrato se constituye en un fisonomista despiadado que muestra todos los defectos de sus retratados.

[edit]
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
