Abstract (en)
Study, based extensively on documents, of the cathedral of Valladolid de Michoacán (now Morelia), and its economic, religious, and administrative context, 16th-18th cs. Surveys the history of the original cathedral, founded in 1586, and focuses on the present cathedral, which was begun in 1660 to designs of Vicente Barroso de Escayola, consecrated in 1705, and completed in 1746 by José de Medina. Provides a detailed account of the building history, followed by chapters on the iconography of the sculptural decorations of the facades, on the altars, and on the lost treasure of the cathedral; also provides an appendix with transcriptions of 64 documents dated 1655-1787, including inventories (1697-1787), contracts, reports, and records of payment.
