Exhibit on display through April 15
"Saints Preserve Us," a
collection of 24 color
reproductions of retablos is
currently on display in the
gallery of the Fine Arts
Center, Produced by the
University of Texas In-
stitute of Texan Cultures in
San Antonio, the travelling
exhibit will remain at the
TSU campus through April
15.
Retablos, Spanish for
altarpieces, are paintings
depicting saints. The oldest
existing Mesdcan retablos
date from the 17th century
and were usually painted
on wood, canvas or copper.
In the 18th century,
retablos were painted on
expensive sheets of copper,
but by the 19th century,
retablos for household
altars were usually painted
on less expensive sheet tin.
Collectors of iconographic
and folk art have become
interested in the retablos
which are still in use in
Hispanic churches and
homes across Texas.
There is a story behind
the name of every Texas
town and Refugio, San An-
tonio and Saint Hedwig are
no different. The saints
these towns were named
for and the story behind
their selections are told in
the text of "Saints
Preserve Us." Spanish ex-
plorers often named moun-
tains, rivers or settlements
they discovered after the
saints whose day was being
observed by the Roman
Catholic calendar.
One of the more legen-
dary (Rints featured in the
exhibit is Santiago, the
saint who established
Christianity in Spain. Dur-
ing their battles with Texas
Indians, Spanish con-
quistadores reported that
the noble fighter, Santiago,
appeared before them as
inspiration for victory.
Santiago Mountain in
Brewster County is named
for this saint, and two
Texas towns bear the
English version of his
name, St. James.
Saints' names are
sprinkled liberally across
Texas. San Antonio recalls
Saint Anthony of Padua.
San Diego in Duvall County
is the Spanish version of
Saint Didacus who lived in
Spain the mid-15th century.
Saint Jerome, a 4th century
priest and healer is known
in Spanish as San
Geronimo. His namesake is
the town of Geronimo in
Guadalupe County.
The name Guadalupe
itself recalls Our Lady of
Guadalupe* the Patroness
of the Americas and Mex-
ico. Refugio derives its
name from a mission nam-
ed in honor of Nuestra
Senora del Refugio de
Pedacores (Our Lady,
Refuge of Sinners).
The exhibit may be viewed
daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
