La Reducción Jesuítica de Trinidad

Description:

A well-documented study on the Guaraní Baroqueʺ stone carvings of the Jesuit reduction of the Santísima Trinidad of Paraná, the largest and best conserved of the guarani missions in Paraguay. A testimony by Diego de Alvear about the church (full inside-out with statuesʺ) seems to sustain that image of horror vacui.ʺ (HKB Translation)--Page 10.
