But whoever brought them together and painted the phrases may well have intended that they be taken to represent the twelve apostles. Two wear bishops' mitres, several have tonsures, one is in a priest's chasuble, etc. It is clear that these twelve santos were originally intended to represent various saints from long after the apostolic era. La resurrección de la carne y la vida perdura, "The resurrection of the body and the life everlasting."Ī common device from the Middle Ages into the Baroque era was to present the Apostles' Creed in twelve phrases, each assigned to the figure of one Apostle. La comunion de los Santos, "The Communion of Saints."Įl perdon de los pecados, "The forgiveness of sins." Subio a los cielos y esta a la diestra de Dios Padre Todopoderoso, "He ascended into Heaven and is at the right hand of the Father Almighty."ĭesde alli ha de venir a juzgar a los vivos y a los muertos, "From there he will come to judge the living and the dead."Ĭreo en el Espiritu Santo, en la Santa Iglesia Catolica, "I believe in the Holy Spirit, in the Holy Catholic Church." (The words on the cape are illegible, but they can only be some version of descendió a los infiernos, al tercer día resucitó de entre los muertos, "he descended into Hell, on the third day he rose from the dead" – the only phrase otherwise unaccounted for.) Padeció devajo del poder de Poncio Pilato fue crucificado, muerto y sepultado, "He suffered under the power of Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried."

Que fue concevido por ovra del Espiritu Santo y nació de Santa Maria Virgen, "Who was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary." These twelve santos in the ex-convento in Teposcolula, Mexico, have been repurposed as if they were the twelve Apostles bearing the words of the Apostles' Creed in Spanish.Ĭreo en Dios, Padre todopoderoso, "I believe in God, the Father Almighty."Ĭriador del Cielo y de la Tierra, "Creator of Heaven and Earth."Ĭreo en Jesucristo su unico Hijo, Nuestro Señor, "I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, Our Lord." (Only the word unico is fully legible.) Twelve Santos and the Apostles' Creed: Mexican Santos
