Dominios y recursos de la imagen. Iconografía cerámica del valle de Ambato

Abstract

This paper confronts the iconography of La Rinconada ceramics (Ambato, Catamarca) with other relevant regional information, to propose a general stylistic review where figurative representations are examined in the light of the different ways to, both, approach the subject, and its analytic categories, allowing thus to read across different dimensions of image production and use. We approach the different modes of representation and interpretation afforded by the motifs or represented models in the context of their discovery and within their particular architectural space. Finally, we discuss the reach of our results and outline the images'main themes and central topics.
