Maria Campos Carles de Pena, a leading expert in furniture history,
has undertaken an exhaustive project of research into the large and
varied production of furniture made in Peru in the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries - the colonial period - for churches,
convents, monasteries and private collections. Over eleven chapters
she provides a thorough description of this type of furniture,
which was inspired by artistic styles ranging from Mannerism to
Neoclassicism, with their many variants and creators. Her analysis
allows for an appreciation of the way vice-regal furniture in Peru
is a valuable witness to its time: an example of a syncretism of
varied and different cultures, endowed with symbolism, iconographic
meaning and enormous beauty."
