ABSTRACT
The Santa Luzia Mother’s Church, in the city of Santa Luzia, holds a group of retables which wasn’t duly analyzed in the context of Art History. Despite being significantly important to Luso-Brazilian carving of the 18th century. In view of the questions that arise on the topic, the present article aims to study three retables of said Church, with the intention of knowing the historic and stylistic aspects which influenced its production, as well as the relationship to other sister retables found in Minas Gerais.
