The primitive
chapel of San Blas, located in the old Inca neighborhood of
T'oqokachi, was one of the first parishes of Cusco.
Holds inside a rich collection of paintings where it stands
out the series of the life and miracles of San Blas, martyr
bishop, as well as the canvas of the resurrection of Lazarus,
a piece from the Master Diego Quispe Tito.
However, its greatest attraction is the famous and worldwide
known pulpit of San Blas.
A masterful assembly of carved cedar wooden pieces, staked
with thorns of "giganton" (a peruvian cactus).
There are 70 different figures in a baroque style, divided
in 3 parts: the "tasa", the "antepecho"
and the "tornavoz". |
