Opis:In the Shrine of Santo Señor de Chalma is venerated an image of a Crucifix from the 16th century, and which according to the Augustinian chronicles was one of the most important elements in the evangelization of that region. The devotion around the Crucified Christ of Chalma grew during the 17th century, which prompted the construction of a convent and a shrine. On September 6, 1783, King Carlos III, issued a certificate that gave the site the title of "Royal Convent and Shrine of Our Lord Jesus Christ and Saint Michael of the Caves from Chalma." A few years later during the first decade of the 19th century the sacristy was decorated with five extraordinaries canvases that, fortunately, have been preserved in their original place. This paper an iconographic interpretation of these images, among which the representation of a Celestial Jerusalem with Saint Augustine at the center of its composition.
