Large Tigua painting depicting the countryside and a fiesta in a village. The canvas itself is formed by a piece of skin stretched and nailed over a wooden frame. The sky and the countryside serve as the background of the painting. On the left side of the painting, there is a green and orange-brown cliff set against the horizon. There are two stone-walled buildings with brown thatched roofs nestled in front of the cliff. To the right, two more buildings rest atop a yellow hill. To its right there is a blue snow-capped mountain. Two couples lead their llamas along a path toward the leftmost buildings. There are a number of houses. A grey path runs along the bottom of the hill, upon which a couple walks toward the left leading, on a brown harness, a donkey carrying a package. On the right side of the path, a couple leads two llamas, one yellow-white and one black, through an arch in the brown cliff. In front of the hillside, there is a field with yellow grains being cut by two women and a man with sickles. Yellow-white llamas graze in a field right of the hillside. A woman spins wool in the lower right corner of the field. A grey path curves upward from the right edge of the image, and two women and two men carrying yellow bundles on their backs walk up the path. A woman leads a llama with a bundle tied to its back on the path as well. The village is delineated from the countryside on the left side of the painting by a wall of orange dirt. On the right, a brown wall of dirt serves the same purpose. From the left side of the image, a large yellow-white building is set on a diagonal toward the centre of the town. It has a dark grey stone patio, and a man stands on it with his back turned. Another man stands on the patio holding a blue book in his hands, facing the viewer. Two couples watch the men on the patio with their backs to the viewer. There are three small stone buildings with thatched roofs. In between the buildings, two masks sit on the ground and are yellow with pointy ears and large eyes. In front of the three buildings there is a blue pot with water, a brown cylindrical object and a low square table. On top of the table there are three more masks and a small white dish of water. Scattered around the table are six more masks, two drums, a rug, a pink box with a skull affixed to it, and a woman spinning wool. In front of the yellow field there are two stone buildings. Right of the buildings, there are two people wearing elaborate, colourful box-shaped costumes. They carry silver objects shaped like arrowheads with handles. There is a table in front of one of the stone buildings with three men drinking at it. Along the bottom edge of the painting, there is another table with five men drinking around it. Throughout the crowd, which expands right of the tables, there are figures costumed in masks like those on the left side of the painting. The figures also wear jumpsuits that are split down the middle with a different colour on each half and printed with flowers in various colours. The masked figures carry gold bottles and silver cups in their hands. Two men play large round drums in different parts of the crowd. There are also two men on horses who wear furry pants. A woman carries a silver stick with an elaborate cross at its top. Five men play gold and silver horn instruments around the perimeter of the paddock. Within the paddock, four men wave patterned textiles in various colours in front of a large black bull.

Small Tigua painting depicting peasant life. The canvas is a piece of skin stretched and nailed over a wooden frame. The outside of the frame is painted black. The landscape is broken up into shapes with straight and curvilinear lines. On the left side, in the foreground, there is a square yellow patch in which a man and woman are cutting grains. In front, there are six bundles of grain and behind there is a dense field. They both hold large sickles in their hands. There is a dark green field inhabited by grey llamas. On the left side of the painting, there are raised bluffs above the field of llamas. They are bright green with large leafy plants, large pink flowers, small pink flowers, yellow flowers and bushy green trees against the horizon. There are also bluffs on the right side of the painting. The two bluffs are separated by a dark dirt road that curves down from the middle to the right side of the painting. There are three people walking up this road; two men who have tall bundles of grain strapped to their backs and a woman in a pink shirt and dark blue skirt. A white dog trails behind the woman. Walking down the hill are a woman and a man. At the bottom of the road, there are two buildings. One has a brown roof and grey walls and the other has a light brown roof and white walls. There is also a bundle of sticks and a large orange pot with a handle. There are two different patches of land on the bluffs on the right side of the painting.

Large painting in dark colours of a woman in an ornate dress surrounded by religious imagery. Pomata is pilgrimage site in Peru. Our Lady of Pomata was honoured as a source of miracles in Peru. Red curtains in the upper right and left corners descend down the sides of the painting. A pink cherub in each corner holds the edge of the curtain up with one of their arms.
