Description: Here is a wonderful Peruvian Retablo box displaying Village people playing instruments. Each little figure is playing a different instrument. I love these little boxes they just make you smile when you look at them. Retablos are a sophisticated Peruvian Folk Art in the form of portable boxes which depict religious, historical, or everyday events that are important to the Indigenous people of the highlands. It is a tradition originated in Ayacucho. The Spanish work retable comes from the Lation retro-tabulum (behind the table or altar), which was later shortened to retabulum. This is a reference to the fact that the first retablos were placed on or behind the altars of the Catholic Churches in Spain and Latin America. They were three-dimensional statues or images inside a decorated frame. Measures 7" x 2" x 5"
