Text Appearing Before Image:
osary was so elaborately decorated withtile-work, gilded carvings and paintings that it was called the eighth wonder ofthe world. A work published in Puebla in 1690, entitled Sermon de la dedica-cion de la Capilla del Rosario. Su Autor, Dr. Diego Victoria Salazar, seemsto prove beyond question that this chapel was finished in that year. There alsoappeared in the same year in Puebla another work entitled La Octava Mara-villa Capilla del Rosario. Sin Autor, which means that this work describingthe eighth wonder of the world, the chapel of the Rosary, was publishedanonymously. An examination of the tile-work in the chapel of the Rosary shows beyondquestion that the dado was constructed when the chapel was originally decora-ted, so that we may safely assume that these tiles were made not later than theyear 1690. They are in blue and white and undoubtedly of Puebla work ofthat period, as they possess the irregular, curved surfaces so characteristic of 4Q BULLETIN OF THE PENNSYLVANIA MUSEUM

It is also highly probable that the relief border tilesshowing cherubs heads are of the same age, as there seems to be no evidencethat these were inserted at a later date. At Churubusco the monastery church of Santa Maria de los Angeles (com-pleted in 1678), in Spanish renaissance style, is still resplendent in its brilliantdress of tile. Particularly interesting are some panel designs in the dado of thechoir, representing in colors lemon trees laden with fruit, and other trees, inter-spersed with tile paintings of Chinese vases on stands. The chapel of SanAntonio Abad adjoining the church is covered with brightly colored tile-workfrom the bases to the top of the dome. The kneeling effigies of Don Diego delCastillo and his wife, Dona Helena de la Cruz, the patron and patroness of thechurch and monastery, carved in wood, are stillpennsylvaniamuse23unse
