1. Marcos Zapata
Marcos Zapata (1710-1773) is also known as “Marcos Sapaca Inca” and is a notable
member of the Cusco School of painting. He was one of the final members of this art
movement which revolved around Spanish artists teaching natives to produce religious
paintings.
What’s remarkable about Zapata is that he included elements from his home country
in his works. His most famous work is The Last Supper at Cusco Cathedral and it
features guinea pigs as food and glasses of chicha instead of bread and wine in
European versions. There are some of his artworks: Visitación, Sagrada familia, Torre
de marfil, San Ignacio venciendo a los herejes.
